It's ok, some people are more demonstrative than others. God sees our hearts.

Don’t do that. I got everything from Los Lonely Boys, to Pearl Jam, to Kitty Wells.

Romans 10:5-13 (ESV),

5 For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness based on faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. 11 For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. 13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Deuteronomy 30:11-13 (ESV),

11 “For this commandment that I command you today is not too hard for you, neither is it far off. 12 It is not in heaven, that you should say, ‘Who will ascend to heaven for us and bring it to us, that we may hear it and do it?’ 13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, ‘Who will go over the sea for us and bring it to us, that we may hear it and do it?’

Heaven is wherever Jesus is.

Lyrics from the song you mentioned.

Save me from this prison
Lord, help me get away
Cause only you can save me now from this misery
I've been lost in my own place, and I'm gettin' weary
How far is heaven?
And I know that I need to change my ways of livin'
How far is heaven?
Lord, can you tell me


It makes one to think, why would a song like this become so popular among "christian" and worldly music listeners? It's because they're asking themselves the same question, how far is Heaven? My prayer is God sends them a believer/s to witness to them the truth, or perhaps he already has and they denied their chance.....

Most modern "Christian" music is like most modern music in general - whining incessantly about problems with no offer of any rational solution, no hope, no positivity. Likely by design to continue the demoralization of western people.
