A LITTLE SPOT IN HEAVEN
(Marty Robbins)

I don't ask you, Lord, to lighten up my burden.
I don't mind the trials on earth that I go through.
Bein' down, 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.

[As sung by Marty Robbins on 3 albums: "What God Has Done" (1965), "I've Got a Woman's Love" (1972), and "Country (1960-1966)" (1996).]
