my dearest friend, if i sing you this song will you hear it from up in heaven? i'm still down here in this ugly place but up there's where i'm heading when they tell you i'm coming please wait for me in front of the house that i'll live in and when Jesus walks me up to the door i can finally see you again
it's true that my heart was broken in two on the day i said goodbye to you and i carry an ache inside of my chest until Jesus makes everything new
those that we loved that left before us must have been thrilled beyond words when you ran through the gates and into the kingdom and up to the feet of my Lord once sick and frail, once weak and pale now made perfect and new no more aching and crying, no more breaking and dying finally home in the arms of who loves you
when you run and you play in the light of the Son hold me in your heart and mind i don't know how and i don't know when but i'm leaving this cold place behind how my heart aches to think of the day when my faith shall finally be sight when the crowds will part and cheer as i come as i walk through toward the light
and my father, my love, my Jesus, my king in his glory, seated on his throne he'll take me in his arms as the crowds cheer and sing and say "well done child, welcome home" and he'll walk me to the house that he built with the father's love and the carpenters touch and you'll run to me and i'll hold you again my friend, i've missed you so much
