I awoke on a beautiful day 
I stepped outside to see the sun shining down on me 
I take a big deep breath and think 
"There's no other place that I wanna be" 
I look at the sky, the grass, and the trees 
And all the neat things living in the sea 
Ask myself, "How could this be?" 
God made this so great for me 

I wanna see just what it's like 
To catch a glimpse of paradise 

Can't even fathom the scene 
Imagine all the possibilities 
All the things we've never dreamed 
Will be ours to touch and [sorry, can't figure it out] 
Forget the riches in front of me 
I have my faith, that all that I need 
It's so easy I just want you to see 
Shut your eyes and take a giant leap
