heaven on mind

Brooklyn Tabernacle

Heaven on my mind
I started with jesus at a very early age
Yes, i?ve known him nearly all of my life
I admit there have been times when i faltered along the way
But i?ll keep trying because somehow i?ve got to make it in
You see, i?ve got a charge on my life and i?ve got a job to
Do, and i can?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 every day 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?, ?she said?, that, ?they said?
?cause it?s all i can do to keep my own self in line
I must work while it?s day, for 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 every day of my life
Cause i?ve got heaven on my mind

I can?t understand how some people can move so slow
Maybe they don?t know just what time it is
He?s coming back and i know it won?t be long
I?ve gotta be ready, i gotta be ready, for my starry crown
I wanna hear him say, i wanna him say, well done

You can talk about me, say what you wanna say
You can stand around wasting your time
While your talking, i?m gonna keep on walking
Cause i?ve got a heaven on my mind

You can talk about me, say what you wanna say
You can stand around wasting your time
While your talking, i?m gonna keep on walking
Cause i?ve got a heaven on my mind

On my mind
