I don't ask you ,Lord, to lighten up my burden
I don't mind the trials on earth that I go through
Beyond doubt, I want to prove that I am worthy
Of a little spot in Heaven close to youYears ago my Mother taught me all your meaning
Of the hardship and the pain that you went through
Know you ,Lord, that I am ready and I'm waiting
For a little spot in Heaven close to youPrecious Lord, forget me not don't pass me by
Though there must be others worthier than I
If you can then, Lord, here's what I'll have you do
Save a little spot in Heaven close to youIf my wish is more than I deserve, forgive me
Up in Heaven any place would surely do
But I've done my best on earth that's why I'm asking
For a little spot in Heaven close to you
