I am looking for the lyrics and sheet music to this song. My grandma wants it sang at her funeral.

I don't know if this is the song you're looking for or not.
If it is i can't be of help with the sheet music but I do have the chords if that will help.
If so, you can email me at [email protected]
and I'll be more than happy to send them to you. God Bless!

Heaven

Verse: 1
In childhood I heard of a heaven,
I wondered if it could be true,
that there were sweet mansions eternal,
up there somewhere beyond the blue,
I wondered if people really go there,
then one day sweet Jesus came in,
then I got a vision of heaven,
my soul through all heaven would spend.

Chorus:
Heaven, (happy home above),
heaven, (land of peace and love),
oh, it makes me feel like traveling on,
heaven, (supernal),
heaven, (eternal),
I'm so glad it's real.

Verse: 2
Then I've got acquainted with Jesus,
my soul's overflowing with love,
my heart like the Savior is broken,
for friends who will miss that home above,
then a voice from the hills of Judea,
still ringing words of sweet relief,
a world of attraction's don't thrill me,
my soul has a change of belief.
