I Wanna Know How It Feels Lyrics

By Karen Peck & New River

Verse 2

My momma and daddy talked about going home 

Since I was just a babe on their knees 

They said that nothing compared to what was waiting up 

there how one day we would finally be free 

Well, I've never seen it but I keep on believing it 

will be a place like I've never known 

I keep my eyes on the sky 'cause my soul wants to fly 

Lord, my heart is ready to go 



Chorus

I want to know how it feels 

To make my way down the streets of gold 

I want to know how it feels 

To have a talk with the saints of old 

I want to know what it's like 

To rest my feet by the River of Life 

I've heard of heaven and I know that it's real 

I want to know how it feels 



Verse 1

Sometimes I get weary from this life that I live 

It seems that peace is something I'll never find 

I try to lighten my load when all that I've got to show 

is seven hundred things on my mind 

Well, I'm seeing visions of a crystal clear river 

where sin's forgotten without a trace 

More than I've ever dreamed my eyes long to see the 

look of love on my Savior's face 



Chorus

I want to know how it feels 

To make my way down the streets of gold 

I want to know how it feels 

To have a talk with the saints of old 

I want to know what it's like 

To rest my feet by the River of Life 

I've heard of heaven and I know that it's real 

I want to know how it feels
