Heaven Is Ten Zillion Light Years Away
Shawn Colvin
They say that Heaven is
10 zillion light years away
And just the pure of heart
Will walk her righteous streets someday
They say that Heaven is
10 zillion light years away
But if there is a God
We need Him now
"Where is your God?"
Well that's what my friends ask me
And I say, "It's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come"
Why can't they say that hate is
10 zillion light years away
Why can't the light of good
Shine God's love in every way
Why must is color black
Make him a lesser man
I thought this world
Will made for every man
He loves us all
That's what my God tells me
And I say, "It's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come"
And I can't say that Heaven is
10 zillion light years away
But if so let all be pure of heart
Just to walk her righteous streets I pray
Let God's love shine within
To save our evil souls
To those who don't believe
Will never see the light
"Where is my God"
He lives inside of me
And I say, "It's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come"
I say, "It's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come"
