When I meet Jesus, man I wonder what I’ll say Will I be forgivin’, when it comes my Judgment Day Will there be angels, dressed in robes of white Will they take me onto Heaven, to start up my new life When I meet Jesus.
Will He remind me of my struggles and the way I spent my days Every rotten thing I ever did and all the hell I raised The world I tried to satisfy and the ones that I let down And the day I finally turned it all around.
(1st Chorus) They’ll be things that I’m ashamed of and sins that I’ll regret Times I’m not so proud of and some I wish I could forgot But I’ll know just what it’s like then, to be a perfect man When I meet Jesus, I think I’m gonna’ finally understand.
I’m gonna ask him ‘bout my Grandma, man I wonder how she’s been I know she spent her last breath prayin’, just talkin’ straight to Him And I’ll thank Him for my family and the man that I’ve become And every miracle in my life that He’s done.
(2nd Chorus) And we’ll walk down those streets of gold just like two long lost friends And I’ll kneel down by His side there and kiss His nail scarred hands And I’ll feel His love and mercy as I cross those Pearly Gates Just thinkin’ ‘bout it now, I just can’t wait When I meet Jesus.
And I’ll gather with the saints as we sit beneath His throne Singin’ Hallelujah ‘cause we finally made it home And I won’t have to worry, ‘cause there won’t be any doubt And I’ll finally know what love and grace is really all about When I meet Jesus.
When I meet Jesus, man I wonder how I’ll feel Will time just seem to stop right there, will everything stand still Will He be smiling, glad to see my face Will the problems in this world just be erased When I meet Jesus.
