Soon I'm gonna meet my Lord
See Him face to face
He'll lead me through the fire of love
To see if I'm gonna stand
I often wonder if He'll speak
When He looks into my eyes
If only His gaze would be enough
To say you'll live or you'll die
O Lord, I want to live with You
Forever in paradise

I've tasted fame enough to know
The glory soon fades away
All the money and the lights the world can give
Won't take me high enough on that day
It doesn't matter if you're diggin' dirt
Or sittin' high on the penthouse floor
The rich, the poor together they'll burn
When He looks on the heart of each man
O Lord, I want to live with You
Forever in paradise

Well, I'm not afraid of the judgement day
'Cause He lives within my heart
And I can't wait to see Him face to face
I'm gonna sing Him my brand new song
And I don't care what the world may say
I'm gonna live my life for God
'Cause He's building me a place
Where I can dance and sing my songs
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound
And time shall be no more
And the morning breaks eternal bright and fair
And the saved of earth shall gather
Over on the other shore
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there

When the roll is called up yonder
When the roll is called up yonder
When the roll is called up yonder
When the roll is called up yonder
O Lord, I want to live with you
Forever in paradise
