Heavenward Bound • mp3
Words and Music by Joe LaMay & Sherri Reese

When I was a boy in the church down the lane
I would listen to my mother sing God’s sweet refrain
Her voice filled my heart with glorious sound
And on the wings of an angel I’d be heavenward bound

Heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
On the wings of an angel
I’d be heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
On the wings of an angel
I’d be heavenward bound

And I remember the hymns my mother would sing
As we rocked on the porch in grandmother’s swing
All the family would come and they’d gather around
And on the wings of an angel we’d be heavenward bound

Heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
On the wings of an angel
We’d be heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
On the wings of an angel
We’d be heavenward bound

And I remember the night she crossed over that shore
To God’s holy light to be with us no more
We all gathered to sing as they lowered her down
Then on the wings of an angel she was heavenward bound

Heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
On the wings of an angel
She was heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
Heavenward bound
On the wings of an angel
She was heavenward bound

When I was a boy in the church down the lane
I would listen to my mother sing God’s sweet refrain
