Written Up There Songtext
von Authentic Unlimited

I still remember a heart full of fear
I knew where the laws go when they leave here
But I kept praying, God answered my prayer
Then I knew my name was written up there

I know my name is written up there
When I leave this old world and the burdens I bear
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for paying my fare
Praise God, my name is written up there

Alone and so broken in my room, I stood
My life was in turmoil, and I found no good
Then I asked, Lord Jesus, come dwell with me here
He reached down and saved me, I have not to fear

I was out walking this world all alone
I had no direction, my heart had grown cold
But when I found Jesus, He gave me a home
And a beautiful family, with blessings undone


I know my name is written up there
When I leave this old world and the burdens I bear
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for paying my fare
Praise God, my name is written up there

My heart felt so heavy, my world faded to blind
I knew He would not forsake me if I didn′t look back
My eyes are on Jesus, He bore all my cares
Keep your focus on the father, my name is written up there

Filled with conviction, my aching heart bled
Lost and alone, I knelt by my bed
I cried, "Forgive me, my sin I can't bear"
Then I knew my name was written up there

I know my name is written up there
When I leave this old world and the burdens I bear
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for paying my fare
Praise God, my name is written up there
Praise God, my name will be written up there
