My grandmother passed away this weekend and it was quite sad and yet beautiful. She had been suffering for some time. It is strange the everytime I turned on the radio I heard this song and was comforted... I think it is something that my grandma would want us to say because she is happy where she is. She has rejoined her family in heaven and can still look down on all of us. It is funny because you sometimes think certain people are invincible. Certain people are meant to go on and on... I am sad that my Grandmother won't ever see my children on this earth, but then most great-grandparents don't.

Lyrics for Song: When I Get Where I'm Going
Lyrics for Album: Time Well Wasted(Feat. Dolly Parton)
Modified by me:
When I get where I'm going
On the far side of the sky
The first thing that I'm gonna do
Is spread my wings and fly
I'm gonna land beside a lion
And run my fingers through his mane
Or I might find out what it's like
To ride a drop of rain
(Chorus:)Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
I will shed the sins and struggles
I have carried all these years
And I'll leave my heart wide open
I will love and have no fear
Yeah when I get where I'm going
Don't cry for me down here
I'm gonna walk with my grand mother
And she'll match me step for step
And I'll tell her how I missed her
Every minute since she left
Then I'll hug her neck
(Chorus)So much pain and so much darkness
In this world we stumble through
All these questions I can't answer
So much work to do
But when I get where I'm going
And I see my maker's face
I'll stand forever in the light
Of his amazing grace
Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
Hallelujah I will love and have no fear
When I get where I'm going
Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
