Hearing Dwight Yoakam's "Hold On To God" moved me to witness through this song in my own way...
Lyrics
It’s a long road to Heaven just to get there
It’s a long way to Heaven if you go
It’s a long road to Heaven when you get there
Tell Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates I said, “Hello”
Well, it was just the other day
I might have looked the other way
But as it is I turned and went to Him
He shared with me His victory
That lasts through all eternity
By taking up the burden of my sin
It’s a long road to Heaven just to get there
It’s a long way to Heaven if you go
It’s a long road to Heaven when you get there
Tell Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates I said, “Hello"
The years I lived without the Lord
In disarray and disaccord
Are now part of the man I used to be
Through His Word and faithful prayer
And all the love I have to share
I’ll be the man Christ wants the world to see
It’s a long road to Heaven just to get there
It’s a long way to Heaven if you go
It’s a long road to Heaven when you get there
Tell Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates I said, “Hello"
Tell Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates, I’m moving slow…
