[Em]
[D] [C]
[G]
[C]
When I [G] meet Jesus, [C] man I [G] wonder what I'll say
[Em] Will I be [D] forgiven [C] when it comes my [G] judgment day?
Will there [G] be angels [C]
dressed in robes of white?
[Em] Will they take me [D] on to heaven, [G] a start of my new life?
When I meet Jesus, [C]
[G] will he remind me of my struggles?
[C] And the way [G] I spend my days?
[Em] Every rotten thing [D] I ever did, [C] and all the hell I raised
[G] The world I tried to satisfy, and the ones that I let down
[Em] And the day I [D] finally turned it all [C]
around
There'll be things that [G] I'm ashamed of, [D] and sins that [G] I'll regret
[C] And times I'm not [G] so proud of, [D] and some I wish I could forget
[G] But I'll know just what it's like then, [D]
to be a [Em] perfect man
When I meet Jesus, [G] [D]
I think I'm gonna finally [G] understand
Mama asked about my grandma, and I wonder how she's been
[Em] I know she's been her last [D] breath praying, [C] just talking straight to him
[G] And I'm thanking for my family, and the man that I've become
[Em] And every miracle [D] in my life that [C] he's done
We walked down [G] those streets ago, [D] just like two long [G] lost friends
[C] And I'll kneel down by [G] his side there, [D] and kiss his nail-scarred hands
[C] And I'll feel his [G] love and mercy, [D] as I cross those [Em] pearly gates
[C] I'm just thinking [G] about it now, I just [Am] can't [D] wait
When I [G] meet Jesus, [Em] and I'll gather with the saints
[D] As I sit beneath his throne, [G]
singing hallelujah
[C] Cause I finally made it home, [Em] and I won't have to worry
[D] Cause there won't be any doubt, [G] and I finally know
What love and [C] grace is really all about
When I [G] meet Jesus
[C] [G] When I meet Jesus, man I wonder how I'll feel
[Em] Time just [D] seems to stop right there, [G] while everything stands still
He'll be smiling, glad to see my face
Will my problems in [D] this world just [C] be erased
When I [G] meet Jesus
[C] When I [G] meet Jesus
[C] When I [G] meet Jesus
