Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven Lyrics


Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Once upon a time there lived a man and his name was Hezeki
He walked with God both day and night but he didn't wanna die
He cried, oh Lord, please let me live, death is close I know
God smiled down on Hezeki and gave him fifteen years to goEverybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die
But I long for the day when I'll have new birth
Still I love the livin' here on earthEverybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to dieWhen Jesus lived here on this earth he knew his father's plan
He knew that he must give his life to save the soul of men
When Judas had betrayed him, her father heard him cry
He was brave until his death but he didn't wanna dieEverybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die
But I long for the day when I'll have new birth
Still I love the livin' here on earthEverybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die
So I long for the day when I'll have new birth
Still I love the livin' here on earthEverybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
