I don't ask you ,Lord, to lighten up my burden   I don't mind the trials on earth that I go through   Beyond doubt, I want to prove that I am worthy   Of a little spot in Heaven close to you      Years ago my Mother taught me all your meaning   Of the hardship and the pain that you went through   Know you ,Lord, that I am ready and I'm waiting   For a little spot in Heaven close to you      Precious Lord, forget me not don't pass me by   Though there must be others worthier than I   If you can then, Lord, here's what I'll have you do   Save a little spot in Heaven close to you      If my wish is more than I deserve, forgive me   Up in Heaven any place would surely do   But I've done my best on earth that's why I'm asking   For a little spot in Heaven close to you      At the altar years ago we got acquainted   And as time went on the love in my heart grew   If it isn't asking too much, Lord, then save me   Just a little spot in Heaven close to you
