Jonathan Pierce - Heaven Is Ten Zillion Light Years Away lyrics

They say that heaven is
Ten zillion light years away
And just the pure at heart
Will walk the righteous streets someday
They say that heaven is
Ten zillion light years away
I know there is a God we need Him now
"Where are you, God?", oh
That's what my friends ask me
And I say it's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come
Tell me, people why can't they say that hate
Is ten zillion light years away?
Why can't the light of good
Shine some love on evеry soul?
Why is my color white
Supposed to make mе a better man?
I thought this world was made
For every man and every woman
He loves us all, oh, yeah
That's what my God tells me, yeah, yeah
And I say it's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to go

In my heart I can feel it
Feel His spirit, oh-whoa feel it
Feel His spirit

I can't say that heaven is
Ten zillion light years away
But, if so, let all be pure at heart
Just to walk the righteous streets I pray
Let God's love shine within
To save our evil souls
For those who don't believe
Will never see the light
Where is my God? (tell me)
He lives inside of me
And I say it's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come
Now, tell me, people where is your God?
Inside please, let Him be
And I say it's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come

But, if you open up heart you can feel it
You can feel His spirit, oh-whoa feel it
Feel His spirit open my heart of life

I can feel it oh, feel His, feel His spirit
Whoa, feel it, oh-whoa feel His spirit, yeah
