There’s A Whole Lotta Heaven

Iris DeMent

[Verse 1]
There's a lot of people talking 'bout getting in the glory land way
Walking straight and narrow, 'cuz they're trying to get to heaven someday
But I've been saved by the love of the people living right here
And there's a whole lot of heaven shining in this river of tears
We don't got a prophet who can tell us what our future will hold
We've only got each other and the love we carry in our souls
Though this world's full of trouble and the path we walk is never clear
There's still this whole lot of heaven shining in a river of tears

[Chorus]
There's a whole lot of heaven shining in this river of tears
If you pull back the curtain, little diamonds will appear
So take your streets of gold if you really want 'em and your mansions so dear
But I'll take the whole lot of heaven shining in this river of tears

[Verse 2]
Well, this life that I'm living is like a ship that don't want to be steered
Sometimes I wake up in the morning thinking I could buckle
'Neath the weight of my own fears
It's some pain, some strain and some struggle but I persevere
Cause I got a whole lot of heaven shining in this river of tears

[Chorus]
There's a whole lot of heaven shining in this river of tears
If you pull back the curtain, little diamonds will appear
You can take your streets of gold if you really want 'em and your mansions so dear
But I'll take the whole lot of heaven, it's shining
I want the whole lot of heaven, it's shining
I love the whole lot of heaven, it's shining in this river of tears
