“If You Could See Me Now”

If you could see me now,

you wouldn’t shed a tear

though you may not understand

why I’m no longer here,

remember my spirit,

 that’s the real me I’m still very alive,

 Oh, if you could only see!

I’ve beheld our father’s face.

 I’ve touched my Saviour’s hand.

 The angels all rejoiced

as I entered the Promised Land

 Beyond the gates of pearl,

I walk on golden streets.

I’ve touched the walls of jasper,

dipped my foot in the crystal sea.

The beauty is beyond words,

 nothing can compare.

I’ve seen your mansion;

someday I will meet you there.

Allow Jesus to be your guide,

his word will show you the way.

So, please, don’t cry!

We will meet again someday!
