"EVERYBODY WANTS TO GO TO HEAVEN" BY: LORETTA LYNN from her book "MY LIFE IN lYRICS"

Anima Christi

SOUL of Christ, sanctify me,

Body of Christ, save me.

Blood of Christ, inebriate me.

Water from the side of Christ, wash me,

Passion of Christ, strengthen me.

O good Jesus, hear me.

Within Your wounds hide me.

Separated from You let me never be.

From the malignant enemy, defend me,

At the hour of death, call me.

And close to You bid me.

That with Your saints I may be

Praising You, forever and ever.

AMEN

"EVERYBODY WANT TO GO TO HEAVEN"

Release Date 1965

Album Hymns


Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Once upon a time, there lived a man and his name was Hezekiah

He walked with God both day and night but he didn't wanna die

He cried O Lord please let me live, death is close I know

God smiled down on Hezekiah and gave him fifteen years to go

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die

So I long for the day when I'll have on Earth

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

When Jesus lived here on this Earth, He knew His father's plan

He knew that He must give His life to save the soul of men

When Judas had betrayed Him his father heard Him cry

He was brave until his death but He didn't wanna die

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna die

So I long for the day when I'll have on Earth

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die

Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
