Save me from this prison
Lord, help me get away
'Cause only You can save me now
From this misery

I've been lost in my own place
And I'm getting weary, how far is Heaven?
And I know that I need to change
My ways of living, how far is Heaven?
Lord, can You tell me?

I've been locked up way too long
In this crazy world, how far is Heaven?
I just keep on prayin', Lord
I just keep on livin', how far is Heaven?
Oh, Lord, can You tell me?

How far is Heaven?
I just gotta know how far, yeah
How far is Heaven?
Oh, Lord, can You tell me?

(You that's in a higher place)
(And just send me down a blessing)

'Cause I know there's a better place
Than this place I'm livin', how far is Heaven?
So I just got to show some faith
And just keep on givin', how far is Heaven?
Oh, Lord can You tell me

How far is Heaven?
I just gotta know how far, yeah
How far is Heaven?
Oh, Lord, can You tell me?
How far is Heaven?
I just gotta know how far
I just wanna know how far
