|
I dreamed and I went to heaven
|
And you were there with me
|
We walked upon the streets of gold
|
Beside the crystal sea
|
We heard these angels singing
|
Then someone called your name
|
You turned and saw this young man
|
And he was smiling as he came
|
And he said friend you may not know me now
|
And then he said but wait
|
You used to teach my Sunday School
|
When I was only eight
|
And every week you would say a prayer
|
Before the class would start
|
And one day when you said that prayer
|
I asked Jesus in my heart
|
|
CHORUS
|
Thank you for giving to the Lord
|
I am a life that was changed
|
Thank you for giving to the Lord
|
I am so glad you gave
|
|
Then another man stood before you
|
He said remember the time
|
A missionary came to your church
|
His pictures made you cry
|
You didn’t have much money
|
But you gave it anyway
|
Jesus took the gift you gave
|
And that’s why I’m in heaven today
|
|
CHORUS (repeat)
|
|
One by one they came
|
Far as your eyes could see
|
Each life somehow touched
|
By your generosity
|
Little things that you had done
|
Sacrifices you made
|
They were unnoticed on this earth
|
In heaven now proclaimed
|
|
And I know up in heaven
|
You’re not supposed to cry
|
But I am almost sure
|
There were tears in your eyes
|
As Jesus took your hand
|
And you stood before the Lord
|
He said my child look around you
|
Great is your reward
|
|
CHORUS (repeat)
|
|
I am so glad you gave
|
|
