Where Do We Go

Where do we go when our time on earth is through?
Some talk about it, some never do
One day we're here, next day we're gone
We disappear, life carries on
Where do we go – I want to know
Where do we go?

The hand that once painted pictures
Lies still with no brush to hold
The heart that beats no longer
Is now turning cold
Kind words won't stem the sorrow
Only time will lessen the loss
One day we'll make that journey
River Jordan we're born to cross

Where do we go when our time on earth is through?
Some talk about it, some never do
One day we're here, next day we're gone
We disappear, life carries on
Where do we go – I want to know
Where do we go?

The voice that once lifted spirits
Is silent, to be heard no more
The singer, gone to glory
Is knocking on Heaven's door
Our tears fall like raindrops
On the grave we're gathered 'round
One day we'll sing together
Hand in hand on higher ground

Where do we go when our time on earth is through?
Some talk about it, some never do
One day we're here, next day we're gone
We disappear, life carries on
Where do we go – I want to know
Where do we go?
