Is Heaven Good Enough For You Lyrics

Allison Moorer

(allison moorer/doyle primm)
Heard the preacher at the service
Declare youd gone home that day
To meet the maker and his servants
And take a rest amidst his grace
He said now that youre in heaven
Your trials on earth are through
But I didnt hear him mention
If heavens good enough for you
He claimed you feel no more sorrow
Since youre free from all lifes fears
But can the blessed on gods mountain
Love you more than I down here
I was raised not to question
Promises the Bible makes
But how could the almighty
Make such a terrible mistake
Did the lords illumination
Shine upon you from his throne
When he witnessed my sweet angel
Suffer on the long road home
If theres really no more teardrops
And the streets are paved with gold
Send me down some reassurance
I dont believe what Ive been told
If there really is a kingdom
Where you start your life anew
Wont you please somehow convince me
That heavens good enough for you
