music blurb...derek webb...heaven

I was killed in a shopping cart.

Turned upside down and left for dead

I saw a clown try to speak to me

As I floated over him.



I found my way to a familiar place

I swear I’ve been some time before

I would have thought it was the marketplace

But I could not find the door



Oh I have been to heaven

And I have walked the streets

Cause I couldn’t find the hand to hold

To keep me on my feet



So paradise is a parking lot

A spot up front is your reward

All the rest walk down streets of gold

To the house they could afford



I got lost in swelling crowd

And I could not afford to eat

You only have what you came in with

So I’m living on the street



Oh I have been to heaven

And I found no relief

Cause I couldn’t find the hand to hold

To keep me on my feet



I heard Jesus Christ was there

He had a car that’s bulletproof

That way everyone is safe

From the man who tells the truth



Oh I have been to heaven

And I have walked the streets

But I couldn’t find a hand to hold

To keep me on my feet



I couldn’t find a hand to hold

To keep me on my feet
