I want to see Heaven – dla Tatki … :)

Dzięki Natalii Niemen udało mi się wreszcie dotrzeć do piosenki, którą wyśpiewuję dla Tatki.
Natalia przełożyła ją na język polski i zaśpiewała również dla swojego Taty.

Bo choć nie widzę Cię już od kilku lat, to jesteś w sercu moim, Mamy, Siorek.
Czuwasz, towarzyszysz. Siedzisz cicho – jak to zawsze miałeś w zwyczaju – przy inkubatorze maleńkiej Zuzki.
Głaszczesz Kacperka. Może przytulasz Mamę. Jesteś łącznikiem naszej ziemi z Niebem.

Tęsknię. Ale już inaczej. Bo wiem, że jesteś Niewidzialny.
To miłość sprawia, że śmierć nie jest w stanie nas rozdzielić.
Ona rozciąga się na życie tu i tam, na żywot wieczny.

There are moments in this life when it’s hard to carry on,
When I think about my father and all the loved ones that are gone,
Friends and close relations somewhere on the other side,
They’ve passed into forever, but the love has never died,
Sometimes this tired old world starts bringing my heart down,
But you’ve got to bear the cross if you want to wear the crown,
I often get impatient as Father Time keeps dragging on,
I’ve waited through the darkness, now I’m ready for the dawn,
I’m ready for the dawn.

I want to see Heaven, where the faithful carry on,
I want to see Heaven, oh Lord,
I want to see Heaven, where the pain of sin is gone,
In Heaven, oh Lord,
I want to see Heaven.

As I read the morning paper, it hits me once again,
We’re surrounded by the evil of a world that’s dead in sin,
And the only sane conclusion that my crazy mind can reach is to set my heart on Heaven and to live the things I preach,
So I’m living every moment as is if this day was my last,
Put my treasures where my heart is, and forget about the past,
And if Jesus comes tomorrow I’ll be ready to depart,
As he leads me to my mansion I’ll be following my heart,
I’ll be following my heart.

I want to see Heaven, where the faithful carry on,
I want to see Heaven, oh Lord,
I want to see Heaven, where the pain of sin is gone,
In Heaven, oh Lord,
I want to see Heaven.

I’ve tried to go the distance, but it’s more than I can bear,
They say there’s no more crying, and no more dying there,
I’ve held on to the promise: whosoever will believe will have life that’s never ending,
I believe, I believe.

I want to see Heaven,
I want to see it! I want to see it,
I want to see Heaven, oh Lord, (oh Lord)
I want to see Heaven,
No more crying, no more dying, whoa,
I want to see Heaven, oh Lord,
I want to see Heaven,
Where the pain of sin is gone,
I want to see Heaven, oh Lord, (oh Lord)
I want to see Heaven, (oh)
I want to see Heaven, oh Lord,
I want to see Heaven.
