The key to Heaven is not metal, it wasn't made from steel
It was carved out of two cedar wood studs
And it's carried by believers who know the key is real
'Cause we've been freed from sin and sorrow and covered by His blood
The key to Heaven is not hidden in a dark and secret place
You'll find it if you just look His way
Open up your heart and find amazing grace
And He will lead you past your troubles and you'll hold the key today
CHORUS:
The door to Heaven's never locked up to anyone
All it takes is faith to kick the gates wide open
The path to Paradise was blazed
By a man who freely gave His life away
To make the key that unlocks your heart
And leads you straight into the Savior's arms
The key to Heaven is forever once you know what it's about
But you won't hold it in the palm of your hand
'Cause it's carried in your spirit when you know without a doubt
The key to life is knowing Jesus leads you to the promised land
CHORUS:
The door to Heaven's never locked up to anyone
All it takes is faith to kick the gates wide open
The path to Paradise was blazed
By a man who freely gave His life away
To make the key that unlocks your heart
And leads you straight into the Savior's arms
