[Am]
[E] This is the [G] story of a brother, [Bm] who slept and woke up [Em] in Foreverland.
[G] He looked around, nothing's familiar.
[Bm] He wondered how he [Em] got to be there.
He took [G] a walk around the city, [Bm] and saw this brick [Em] house with a small door.
He [G] walked into the room and saw a man in [E] white.
[Bm] Must be an angel, [Am] so he said.
[D] Mr.
Angel, I'm a stranger, [Bm] don't know what's going on.
The last thing I remember [C] was, I slept last night.
[G] This is a border town, that [Am] takes you where you [Bm] get a crown.
Must have head of heaven, where you came from.
[G] Only those whose name I find, written in this book of life,
[Bm] will forever [C] be in paradise.
[G] Is your name in this book of life?
[D] Is your name in this book of [Am] life here?
[G] Is your name in this book of life?
[Bm] Is your name in this book of [Am] life here?
[G] Na na na,
[Bm] na na na, [Am] na na na na.
[G] Flipping the pages of this great book, [D] this brother gave a [C] cuzzy [Em] gaze.
He [G] saw the names of prophets, saints and martyrs, [Bm] who kept the faith [Am] and won the race.
But he said, Mr.
Angel, where is my name?
[Bm] Can you tell [Am] me what is going wrong?
[G] I'm a pillar in my local church, give the offerings and the [Bm] lights,
feed the poor and have [Am] myself a good [C] name.
[G] Is my name in this book of life?
Is my name in this book of [Am] life [G] here?
Tell me, is my name in this book of life?
[Bm] Is my name in this book of [Am] life here?
Unforgiveness lurks within your heart, [Bm] some folks that [G] you will never let go.
Little folksies and secret faults, [Bm] will spring surprises [Am] on that final day.
[G] Oh, oh, [D] oh, oh, oh.
[C]
[G]
[Em]
So much for this one the brother,
[D] what about you, what [C] about me?
Let him the things that he stands, [Bm] let him take it [Am] less he fall.
[D] [G] Oh, with a pure heart, we'll see Jesus, [Bm] fill those garments below [Am] with purity.
Is [G] your name in that book of life?
Is your name in that book of [Am] life there?
[G] Is your name in that book of life?
Tell [Bm] me, is your name in that book of [Em] life there?
[G] Think about it.
