If heaven wasn't so far away
If I could drive there in just one day
I'd pack my car and get there fast
Or fly there with a rocket blast
Thank my God for hearing this plea
And for letting your eternal soul go free
I'd fight a thousand armies
to a win a raging war
Or paddle against the currents
with just a canoe
if I only had one oar
Defending all your beauty
and the light you gave us here
I am not too far,
my heart is always near
I'd walk a thousand miles
just in my barest feet
Or hire a passing, ghostly shipping fleet
and watch the troops of demons to their
grievous quick retreat
I would walk through the hottest fires
of a crazy burning hell
Or surf the oceans fastest, highest
waiter, water swell
I'd slingshot through the stars
Or float up on a bardge
Just ask the Man in Charge
I'm' waiting for the call
to bring you home again
I'm waiting here for you
back here ...
back in
your earthly Glen.
