I'm not always available to shine my light
I ain't always happy, things ain't always right
But the Lord never said this ole world was my home
He said I'm just a pilgrim to keep movin' on.

So I set my sights on eternal heights
With my eyes on the Kingdom above
Then I hide my life in the light of His word
And rest in my sweet Saviour's love.

As sure as the sun comes up in the sky
I've got a home up in Heaven on high
As sure as the stars are out there tonight
God's up on His throne and everything is alright.

La-de-da, la-de-da, La-de-da, la-de-dee
My Heavenly Father takes good care of me (good care of me)
La-de-da, la-de-da, la-de-dee-ee.

We're all in the same situation, trapped here in doubt
We're ruining our lives, trying to figure it out
But God made a way through the life of His Son
To live here and hope for the new life to come.

So I lay down my prayers at the foot of His stairs
And dream the drea-eams of a child
I climb up in the arms of my Father
And drift away from the world for a while.

As sure as the sun comes up in the sky
I've got a home up in Heaven on high
As sure as the stars are out there tonight
God's up on His throne and everything is alright.

La-de-da, la-de-da, La-de-de, la-de-doo
Jesus is my Saviour, I hope He's yours too
La-de-da, la-de-da, la-de-dee-ee.

I've given my heart to Him
I'm doin' my part for Him
He picks me up when I fall
I'll never go back, as a matter of fact
There ain't nothin' behind me at all.

As sure as the sun comes up in the sky
I've got a home up in Heaven on high
As sure as the stars are out there tonight
God's up on His throne and everything is alright...
