Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow...
Somewhere over the rainbow, I've looked and I waited in vain
To solve my own iniquity and cover the pain
Way up high...
Way up high in the sky at the instance you see
That promise He is keeping for my all eternity
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
It will be what it will be, nothing changes instantly
Except that moment in your heart you truly know that you are free
We've all walked the road less traveled at times
Put aside our better judgment, and followed blurry lines
Lost our way only to come back again and say
Iʼm better for the moment and I'm changed this very day
My faults are not enough to keep you from me
If my hope is in your love, then my cup is never empty
This world don't deserve you were daughters and sons
Your place is in the heavenlies with saints and cheribums
We take life as it comes, though the picture is blurred
It makes those moments ever precious, and we cherish every word
Understanding escapes, but then after awhile
The pieces fit together like a story board tile
When we remember your love, when we remember your face
We get joy in definition, a reminder of Grace
It would take too much time to describe your effect
But eternity's given us that unique prospect
Just rest in the thought of together again
No more hurt and suffering, I can only imagine
But this is here and now, and it's hard to conceive
Hard to be positive, so hard to believe
When it's all over and said, He's still on the throne
God couldn't do without you so He had to take you home
