What on earth are you waiting for Hinsons

I am looking the lyrics for an older song, I think by the Hinsons. I believe the title is "what on earth are you waiting for?" Just caught a clip on the radio, and thought it was great.

Any help would be appreciated.

Just thought of a few lyrics; maybe this will jog someone's memory:

What on earth are you waiting for
There's nothing here worth missing heaven for
. . . . .
Let Jesus in, let Him in today
You've got heaven to gain, what on earth are you waiting for?

Help, please, this is driving me crazy!

This was difficult seeing that its the atkins family that sings this not the hinsons! go here to this website and you can listen to the song and get the words off of it.http://www.shoutlife.com/profile_view.cfm?uid=64877

That may be a re-make, but the one I heard is the Hinsons from several years ago (1992). I found a CD on Christianbook titled "One More Hallelujah", and an audio clip of it.

Would still like the lyrics, thought, if anyone has them. Thanks for your help!

We lost my Father-in-law the day after I first posted this request for help. This song running through my mind has helped me through some rough times, and I would still love to have all the words, and maybe sing it in his memory.

Anybody else out there remember this song? I would really appreciate it!

What on Earth Are You Waiting for
as performed by the Hinsons

What on earth are you waiting for?
There's nothing here worth missing Heaven for
Happiness is waiting at your heart's door
Let Jesus in; let Him in today
You've got Heaven to gain
So what on earth are you waiting for?

verse one
If the rich young ruler had it over tonight
He'd tell the Lord that the price was right
He'd say "Don't wait around wastin' your life on what riches are for"
And if old King Agrippa could just talk to you,
He'd say "Almost, brother, will never do.
You've got Heaven to gain, so what on earth are you waiting for?"

verse two
If waitin' on starry eyed dreams to unfold,
And chasin' illusions of your pot of gold
Has waitin' on givin' your life over to the Lord
All the tinsel will tarnish; the glitter will fade
All of the cares of this pass away
You've got Heaven to gain, so what on earth are you waiting for?

bridge
Satan will paint you a picture
Make this world seem priceless and rare
But in Heaven, the best in this world
Pales to the splendor up there, way up there

Here is the song, written by Kenny Hinson and recorded by The Hinsons on their final album One More Hallelujah, released in 1992.

CHORUS
What on earth are you waiting for?
There's nothing here worth missing Heaven for
Happiness is waiting at your heart's door
Let Jesus in, let Him in today
You've got Heaven to gain, so
What on earth are you waiting for?

VERSE 1
Hey if the rich young ruler had it over tonight
He'd tell the Lord that the price was right
He wouldn't wait another minute weighted down with what riches are for

And if old King Agrippa could just talk to you he'd say,
"Almost, brother, will never do."
You've got Heaven to gain, so
What on earth are you waiting for?

CHORUS

VERSE 2
If waitin' on starry-eyed dreams to unfold
And chasin' illusions of your pot of gold
Has you waitin' on givin' your life over to the Lord
All the tinsel will tarnish; the glitter will fade and
All that is of this world pass away
So with Heaven to gain
What on earth are you waiting for?

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Satan will paint you a picture
Like the world is priceless and rare
But in Heaven, the best of this world
Pales with the splendor up there, way up there, so

CHORUS x 2

TAG
Tell me what on earth are you waiting for?

Thank you, so much! This song was truly a blessing at a time I needed it SO much. I believe it was "sent" to me by hearing it on the radio when I did, being several years old at the time.

But the Lord comes through, on time, every time!
