You know I think that song kind of moves a little bit
And you might not have got what that verse said
I'd just like to tell you
It says you beckoned to my loved ones and how my tears did flow
And though I tried, I just could not hide how it hurt to see them go
But now I know they left this world and moved to a better place
_ And someday you'll call me too and I'll see them face to face
Yeah I'll tell you I like that Yeah
That's good words, that's great words, you know
I've thought about the times that I've walked down in front of a church
And looked down into that [B] casket
That held the body of a loved one that I love so much
_ _ I thought my heart would burst
When I looked in that face that I thought I'd never see again
_ When I found Jesus
I found out that when they clicked the lid shut on that casket
That's not the end of it for me
[N] I got a homeland with Jesus, [G] praise God
Sing that verse for us again
[Em] You beckoned to [C] my loved [G] ones and how my tears did flow
[C] And though I tried, [G] I just could not hide how it hurt [C] to see [D] them go
But now I [C] know they left this [G] world and moved to a better place
[C] And someday [G] you will call me [D] too and I will see them [G] face to face
Oh, let me sing one more time
When you see me come [C] home
