Heaven On My Mind

I started out with Jesus

At a very early age

Yes, I've known Him nearly all of my life

Well I admit there have been times

When I faltered along the way

But I'll keep trying

Because somehow I've got a charge on my life

And I've got a job to do

And I won't stop

Until it's through

I'm determined

I've got a made up mind

I can't stand around wasting my time

I'm gonna keep on working for Jesus

Everyday of my life

'Cause I've got heaven on my mind

I don't have time to waste

Criticizing someone else

There are some things I'd rather leave behind

And I don't have time to be bothered

With "he said", and "she said", and "they said"

'Cause it's all I can do to keep my own self in line

I must work while it's day

Because the night is surely coming

I'm going all the way

I'm determined

I've got a made up mind

I can't stand around wasting my time

I'm gonna keep on working for Jesus

Everyday of my life

'Cause I've got heaven on my mind

You can talk about me

Say what you want to say

You can stand around

Wasting your time

But while you're talking

I'm gonna keep on walking

'Cause I've got heaven on my mind
