When I die and they lay me to rest

Gonna go to the place that's the best

When I lay me downto die
Goin' up to the Spirit in the sky

Goin' up to the Spirit in the sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to rest

Gonna go to the place that's the best.

Prepare yourself
You know it's a must

Gotta have a friend in Jesus

So you know that when you die
He's gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky

Gonna recommend you to the spirit in the sky

That's where you're gonna go when you die

When you die and they lay you to rest
You're gonna go to the place that's the best.

Never been a sinner
I never sinned

I got a friend in Jesus

So you know that when I die
He's gonna set me up with tha spirit in the sky

Oh
Set me up with the spirit in the sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to the rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best.
Go to the place that's the best.
