lyrics

The Great Beyond

In this life there are no certainties
’til our last warm breath is drawn
but the Lord says I can wait for you
’til you reach the great beyond

I can see the house where you were born
and the fields where we would by
and the small white church where we were wed
on that cold November day

I can see where both our boys were raised
in the house we filled with love
giving thanks for all God sent to us
with his blessings from above

I can see where I did promise you
not to leave your love alone
but the Lord had other plans for me
now I wait to carry you home

In this life there are no certainties
’til our last warm breath is drawn
but the Lord says I can wait for you
’til you reach the great beyond
