I’m Going To Heaven If It Takes My Life (GEX 365)

[Intro]
Now children, I'm gonna sing this song. I'm going if it takes my life (Amen). I'm going every step of the way (Yes sir) (Amen). I mean sure enough (Yes sir), ah, that I'm gonna work out my soul salvation (Amen) with fear and with trembling (Lord help) (Amen). I am going if it takes my life (Yes sir) (Lord Jesus). I don't care what the world say about me (Lord Jesus), I'm going (Amen). We have a whole lot of peoples around here (Yes), ah, haven't connected themself to no church (True) (Yes sir). And we have wicked men and women's been around here (Amen) for ten, eleven years [?] (Oh yes, oh yes) (Yes) and they haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ (Amen) (Lord Jesus), ah, and the plans of salvation (Lord help them) (Amen). And then there are people 'round here certainly been borned again (Yes sir) (That's right), and they can't connect themself to no church around here (Oh yes). But I'm in doubt about your regeneration (Amen). You haven't showed as much o' sense as a little old mice. I remember one morning, I walked in my kitchen, the little old (Yes sir) mice was in the kitchen (Oh yes), and he had a crumb in his mouth (Yes) (Lord Jesus), and I rushed the little old mouse, and he tried to go through the hole and carry the crumb with him, and I kept on rushin', he throwed the crumb away and saved his life. There's a whole lot of wicked men and wicked women around here now. Ah, they're trying to [?] (Amen) but you ought to throw them away (Amen) (Yes sir) and go to heaven anyhow (Yes sir) (Oh yes). They ought to go (Yes), if it takes your life (Yes sir) (Amen).​

[Verse 1]
And I'm going if it takes my life, sing it
And I'm going if it takes my life
Well, if I die on the battlefield
I'm going if it takes my life

[Interlude]
Oh yes (Amen), somebody here (Yes sir), trouble in their mind (Yes sir), some mothers here (Yes sir) whose heart achin' [in their bosom?] (Yes), oh (Help them), and their sons in some distant land (Yes sir), and their daughters have turned their back on them (Oh yes). I can hear them when they cry:

[Verse 2]
I'm going if my children don't go
I'm going if my children don't go
Well, if I die on the battlefield
I'm going if my children don't go

[Outro]
Oh yes (Alright), I done made it up in my mind (Yes sir). I'm like the boys playing ball (Yes sir). Now I was standin' around the diamond (Oh yes), now forward, boy, just slide it home (Yes, yes, Jesus). I'm going if I have to slide in (Amen) (Oh yes).​
