I dreamed I went to heaven And you were there with me We walked upon the streets of gold Beside the crystal sea We heard the 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 had a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave
Then another man stood before you And said remember the time A missionary came to your church And 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 here today
CHORUS (repeat)
One by one they came Far as the eyes could see Each life somehow touched By your generosity Little things that you had done Sacrifices made Unnoticed on the 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 For great is your reward
