Matthew West Here And Heaven Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down here, the tears keep falling
Up there, they're wiped away
Down here, it's "why God?" questions
Up there, it's clear as day
Yeah, they couldn't be more different
Here and Heaven are worlds apart
Some days I feel the distance
And Heaven feels too far

[Pre Chorus 1]
But ooh, all because of You
I know it's true

[Chorus]
One is where I'm standing
One is where I'm going soon
One just leavеs me broken
And one makеs broken things brand new
So when down here looks hopeless
The only reason I got hope
Between here and Heaven
Is knowing You're the King of both

[Post Chorus 1]
I know, I know, I know
Yeah, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
Jesus, You're the King of both

[Verse 2]
Down here where steps get heavy
Up there the burden's light
What gets me through is knowing
You are right here by my side
Till I reach the other side

[Chorus]
One is where I'm standing
One is where I'm going soon
One just leaves me broken
And one makes broken things brand new So when down here looks hopeless
The only reason I got hope
Between here and Heaven
Is knowing You're the King of both

[Post Chorus 2]
I know, I know, I know
Yeah, I know, I know, I know
Well, I know, I know, I know

[Verse 3]
Down here, You chose to travel
Up there, You could've stayed
A crown of thorns You wore
And a sinner's price You paid

[Pre Chorus 2]
And ooh, all because of You
I know my home is You

[Chorus]
One is where I'm standing
One is where I'm going soon
One just leaves me broken
And one makes broken things brand new
So when down here looks hopeless
The only reason I got hope
Between here and Heaven
Is knowing You're the King of both

[Post Chorus 3]
I know, I know, I know (I know, I know, I know)
Yeah, I know, I know, I know (I know, I know, I know)
Well, I know, I know, I know
Jesus, You're the King of both
I know, I know, I know
Yeah, I know, I know, I know
Well, I know, I know, I know
Jesus, You're the King of both
