“Going Up” is a bluegrass gospel song recorded by the Lewis Family, the Georgia group long known as the First Family of Bluegrass Gospel. They carried it on one of their albums.
The song is a bright, joyful statement of faith. Its subject is heaven and the certainty of going up to it — the believer’s confident expectation of rising to glory — sung in the upbeat, harmony-rich style of bluegrass gospel.
The song passed from the Lewis Family into the wider bluegrass gospel repertoire.
