View From Up There

On the day there are angels around me
And I have succumb to my fate
I hope the good Lord has found me
Worthy to enter his gate

On the day there are angels around me
And I have succumb to my fate
I hope the Good Lord has found me
Worthy to enter his gate

Don’t lock me out
All I want now
Is to stand at the top of those stairs
I’ve seen it all here
Now give me the view from up there

Sins of the flesh I’ve committed
Were never the sins of my heart
I wish that I could have been perfect
But aren’t we all flawed from the start

I’ve been through Hell
Lord can’t you tell
I’m beggin’ as much as I dare
I’ve seen it all here
Now give me the view from up there

I’m down on my knees
Won’t you have mercy please
Be kind to this child in your care

I’ve seen it all here
Now give me the view from up there
I’ve seen it all here
Now give me the view from up there
