lyrics

Salvation

Don’t want a Heaven after I’m gone
I need a place to keep my family warm
Don’t want a vision of saints all in white
I want the blind to see the sweet morning light

Don’t want a future where God sets things right
I need a neighborhood to walk safe at night
Don’t want a banquet in heaven above
Till no one is hungry in this world that I love

(Chorus)

Salvation’s not just a personal thing
Everyone’s got to hear that Word sing
Ain’t going to get there by push and shove
The Good Lord says it’s about Love…sweet Love

2)
Don’t want a path that rises above
Someone else that fell from love
Don’t want to jump and shout with joy
When another man’s country is being destroyed

Don’t want a doorway closed to some
Too many people left un-done
Don’t want a race where I have to out run
And leave my brother out from the fun…

(Chorus)

Salvations not just a personal thing
Everyone’s got to hear that word sing
Ain’t going to get there by push and shove
The Good Lord says it’s about Love…sweet Love

3)
Don’t want a kingdom don’t want a crown
Till all nations lay their angry weapons down
No Armageddon no thousand years
No more tomorrows…Only Now Only Here

(Chorus)

Salvations not just a personal thing
Everyone’s got to hear that word sing
Ain’t going to get there by push and shove
The Good Lord says it’s about Love…sweet Love
