Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven

Well everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Well Lord, I want to go to heaven but I don’t want to die
So I long for the day when I’ll have new birth
Still I love livin' here on Earth
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Well, 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 want to die
He cried, oh 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
Well Lord, I wants to go to heaven but I don’t want to die
So I long for the day when I’ll have new birth
Still I love livin' here on Earth
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Jesus lived here on this Earth, he knew his father’s plan
He knew that he must give his life to save the souls of men
When Judas had betrayed him, the Father heard him cry
He was brave until his death but he didn’t want to die
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Well Lord, I want to go to heaven but I don’t want to die
So I long for the day when I’ll have new birth
Still I love livin' here on Earth
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Well Lord, I want to go to heaven but I don’t want to die
So I long for the day when I’ll have new birth
Still I love livin' here on Earth
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
I said, everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die
