I'm comin' Lord, for my heavenly reward
I'm on my way to you, can you see me comin' thru
Thru clouds of persecution, and stumblin' on my way
And with my mistakes, I barely make a half a mile a day
Chorus:
But the road to heaven never had a rapid transit plan
It's one way with no changes, straight through the promised land
But I believe that if I'll heed the words He had to say
Even I can get to heaven at a half a mile a day
Lord, when I let you lead, I don't make many speed
"Cause you have me stop and touch all the ones who need so much
And then sometimes I get tempted and I fall along the way
And with my mistakes, I barely make a half a mile a day
Chorus:
But the road to heaven never had a rapid transit plan
It's one way with no changes, straight through the promised land
And I believe that if I'll heed the words He had to say
Even I can get to heaven at a half a mile a day
And the all congregation said "Amen, sister"
