I Want to Go to Heaven

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Listen from:
I want to go to heaven;
For Jesus Christ is there,
Who still loves little children
Just like He did down here.
When mothers brought them to Him
He took them in His arms;
How safe then were those children
From everything that harms!
How can I go to heaven?
The great God hateth sin!
And I am often naughty,
How can He let me in?
God loves the little children,
He gave His Son to die;
The precious blood of Jesus
Can wash all sin away.
How can I go to heaven?
Tho’ I am very small,
Jesus, the Lord, will take me,
Yes, Jesus does it all.
I’m glad because. He loved me;
He’s bought me with His blood;
He died for little children
He showed the love of God.
And when I get to heaven,
I’ll see His blessed face;
Who loves the little children,
And wins them by His grace
Lord Jesus, Thou art coming!
Teach me to love Thee so
That I may gladly greet Thee,
If still I’m here below.
