Jesus is Waiting

I have loved ones who've gone on before.

I have friends I am longing to see.

But the face of my Savior awaits on that shore,

And I know He is waiting for me.

As I journey down life's rugged pathways,

And I struggle for riches untold.

If I'd just stop and look up toward heaven,

Oh the beauty my eyes would behold.

King Jesus abides in that city.

And He's preparing a mansion for me.

So when I'm gone, please spare me your pity,

For King Jesus is waiting for me.
