Heaven On My Mind Lyrics

I started out with Jesus at a very early age
Yes, I've known Him nearly all my life
I admit there have been times when I faulted along the way
But I'll keep trying because somehow I've got to make it in
You see, I've got a charge on my life and I've got a job to do,
and I cant stop until it's through

Im determinded, I've got a made up mind
I cant stand around wasting my time
I'm gonna keep on working for Jesus every day of my life
Cause I've got Heaven on my mind.

I dont have time to waste criticizing someone else
There are some things I'd rather leave behind
And I dont have time to be bothered with "he said", "she said"
that "they said"
Cause it's all I can do to keep my own self in line
I must work while it's day, for night is surely coming
I'm going all the way

Chorus

I cant understand how some people can move so slow
Maybe they dont know just what time it is
He's coming back and I know it wont be long
I've gotta be ready, I gotta be ready, for my starry crown
I wanna hear Him say, I wanna hear Him say, Well done.

You can talk about me, say what you wanna say
You can stand around wasting your time
While your talking, I'm gonna keep in walking
Cause I've got heaven on my mind

You can talk about me, say what you wanna say
You can stand around wasting your time
While your talking, I'm gonna keep in walking
Cause I've got heaven on my mind

On my mind
