Soon I'm going to meet my Lord
See him face to face
Lead me through the fire of love
To see if I'm going to stand
I often wonder if he'll speak when he looks into my eyes
If only His gaze would be enough
To say you'll live or you'll die
Oh Lord I want to live with you forever in paradise
I've tasted fame enough to know
The glory soon fades away
All the money and the lights the world can give
Won't take me high enough on that day
It doesn't matter if your digging dirt
Or sitting high on the penthouse floor
The rich the poor together they'll burn
When he looks on the heart of each man
Oh Lord I want to live with you forever in paradise
Well I'm not afraid of the judgment day
Because he lives within my heart
And I can't wait to see him face to face
I'm going to sing him my brand new song
And I don't care what the world may say
I'm gonna live my life for God
Because His building me a place
Where I can dance and sing my songs
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound and time shall be no more
And the morning breaks eternal bright and fair
And the saved on earth shall gather over on the other shore
And the roll is called up yonder I'll be there
When the roll is called up yonder
When the roll is called up yonder
When the roll is called up yonder
When the roll is called up yonder
Oh Lord I want to live with you
Forever in paradise
