Everybody wants to go to heaven But nobody wants to die Lord, I want to go to heaven But I don't want to die Though I long for the day when I have new birth Still I love livin' here on earth Everybody wants to go to heaven But nobody wants to die
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, O Lord, please let me live Death is close, I know. Lord smiled down on Hezekiah Gave him 15 years to go
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 man When Judas had betrayed Him A father heard Him cry He was brave until His death But He didn't want to die
