Once I was lost without a vision I was trapped in a spiritual prison Then Jesus came and saved my soul He healed my heart and made me whole
CHORUS Now I know heaven is real His Holy Spirit I can feel My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place One day I will feel his loving embrace On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring In heaven above I'll live with him Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim
My journey on earth is so short I must work for him, preach and exhort The Bible records words about my new home Where I'll be at rest and never more roam
CHORUS Now I know heaven is real His Holy Spirit I can feel My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place One day I will feel his loving embrace On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring In heaven above I'll live with him Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim
With friends and loved ones waiting there I'll sit with them and eat that heavenly fare My work on earth will be done My final race will be won
CHORUS Now I know heaven is real His Holy Spirit I can feel My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place One day I will feel his loving embrace On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring In heaven above I'll live with him Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim
The wonders he has prepared for me Gives me hope for today and sets me free While ages roll on and on My trials and troubles will be gone
CHORUS Now I know heaven is real His Holy Spirit I can feel My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place One day I will feel his loving embrace On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring In heaven above I'll live with him Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim
A great homecoming day that will be When friends and loved ones I will see My prayers down here are not in vain My heavenly rewards I will surely gain
CHORUS Now I know heaven is real His Holy Spirit I can feel My treasures are laid up in a heavenly place One day I will feel his loving embrace On the streets of gold I'll shout and sing I can hear those golden bells sweetly ring In heaven above I'll live with him Heaven grows brighter, this world grows dim
