Chorus:
Yes, I want God's heaven to be mine, be mine, be mine,
Yes, I want God's heaven to be mine,
Save me, Lord, save me.
1 I hailed to my sister, she hailed back to me,
The last word I heard her say was,
Save me, Lord, save me. [Chorus]
2 I hailed to my brother, he hailed back to me,
The last word I heard him say was,
Save me, Lord, save me. [Chorus]
3 I hailed to my father, he hailed back to me,
The last word I heard him say was,
Save me, Lord, save me. [Chorus]
4 I hailed to my mother, she hailed back to me,
The last word I heard her say was,
Save me, Lord, save me. [Chorus]
5 I hailed to the gambler, he hailed back to me,
The last word I heard him say was,
Save me, Lord, save me. [Chorus]
6 I hailed to the mourner, he hailed back to me,
The last word I heard him say was,
Save me, Lord, save me. [Chorus]
