Tell Me There's A Heaven

Artist: Chris Rea

The little girl she said to me

What are these things that I can see

Each night when I come home from school

And mama calls me in for tea

Oh every night a baby dies

And every night a mama cries

What makes those men do what they do

To make that person black and blue

Grandpa says their happy now

They sit with God in paradise

With angels' wings and still somehow

It makes me feel like ice

Tell me there's a heaven

Tell me that it's true

Tell me there's a reason

Why I'm seeing what I do

Tell me there's a heaven

Where all those people go

Tell me they're all happy now

Papa tell me that it's so

So do I tell her that it's true

That there's a place for me and you

Where hungry children smile and say

We wouldn't have no other way

That every painful crack of bones

Is a step along the way

Every wrong done is a game plan

To that great and joyful day

And I'm looking at the father and the son

And I'm looking at the mother and the daughter

And I'm watching them in tears of pain

And I'm watching them suffer

Don't tell that little girl

Tell me

Tell me there's a heaven

Tell me that it's true

Tell me there's a reason

Why I'm seeing what I do

Tell me there's a heaven

Where all those people go

Tell me they're all happy now

Papa tell me that it's so

i believe there is. all the drama that ones goes through in our lives and if we live by the golden rule. i feel God rewards us.

but hell, i am not sure on this

in a way i feel that all the suffering one may go through in life is hell (on earth). but i still am not sure on my feelings

not to be factitious or a smarty mouth but I don't remember them folks that caused 9/11 asking America if it was "allowed" , I have not read your post but will . I just seen the part that appears in the box on the home page where you say 'don't allow this to happen again america'

When the Bible speaks of the "Kingdom of God" it is referring an earthly kingdom here on earth.

Well the terrorists certainly believed there was and their way in was to kill unbelievers. Would you want to go to a heaven full of religious nutters? According to christians it doesn't matter what you do in liofe so long as you repent at the last minute you also get to go.
