Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
Once upon a time there lived a man
And his name was Isaac
He walked with God both day and night
But he didn't wanna die
He cried, oh, Lord, please let me live
Death is close I know
God smiled down on Isaac
And gave him, fifteen years to go
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven
But I don't wanna die
Well, I long for the day when I'll have new birth
'Cos I love the livin' here on earth
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
When Jesus lived here on this earth
He knew his father's plan
He knew that he must give his life
To save the soul of men
When Judas had betrayed him
His father heard him cry
He was brave until His death
But He didn't wanna die, hey
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
Lord, I wanna go to heaven
But I don't wanna die
Well, I long for the day when I'll have new birth
'Cos I love the livin' here on earth
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
