|
Got a ticket coming home, |
|
Wish the officer had known |
|
What a day today has been. |
|
Then I stumbled through the door, |
|
Dropping junk mail on the floor. |
|
When will this day end? |
|
But then your letter caught my eye, |
|
Brought the hope in me to life, |
|
'Cause you know me very well, |
|
And I bet you wrote me |
|
Just to tell me, |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be with the Father; |
|
Can't you see Him smile? (Ooooooh....) |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be home forever, |
|
In a while.... |
|
We're just here to learn to love Him; |
|
We'll be home in just a little while. |
|
Boy, that letter hit the spot-- |
|
Made me think of all I've got, |
|
And all that waits for me. |
|
Guess I've known it all day long; |
|
Wonder where my thoughts went wrong. |
|
When will my heart believe? |
|
Waking half way through the night, |
|
Reaching toward the lamp for light, |
|
Picking up the Word I find; |
|
Here's another letter |
|
To remind me. |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be with the Father; |
|
Can't you see Him smile? (Ooooooh....) |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be home forever, |
|
In a while.... |
|
We're just here to learn to love Him; |
|
We'll be home in just a little while. |
|
Days like these are just a test of our will. |
|
Will we walk or will we fall? |
|
Well, I can almost see the top of the hill, |
|
And I believe it's worth it all. |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be with the Father; |
|
Can't you see Him smile? (Ooooooh....) |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be home forever, |
|
In a while.... |
|
We're just here to learn to love Him; |
|
We'll be home in just a little while. |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be with the Father; |
|
Can't you see Him smile? (Ooooooh....) |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be home forever, |
|
In a while.... |
|
We're just here to learn to love Him; |
|
We'll be home in just a little-- |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be with the Father; |
|
Can't you see Him smile? (Ooooooh....) |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be home forever, |
|
In a while.... |
|
We're just here to learn to love Him; |
|
We'll be home in just a little-- |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be with the Father; |
|
Can't you see Him smile? (Ooooooh....) |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be home forever, |
|
In a while.... |
|
We're just here to learn to love Him; |
|
We'll be home in just a little-- |
|
In a little while, |
|
We'll be with the Father; |
|
Can't you see Him smile? (Ooooooh....) |
