Songtexte
I dreamed I went to heaven
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"
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"
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, 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"
Thank You for giving to the Lord
And I am a life that was changed
And thank You for giving to the Lord
I am so glad you gave
One by one they came far as the eye could see
Each life somehow touched by your generosity
Little things that you had done, and 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, you stood before the Lord
He said: "My child, look around you, for great is your reward"
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
And 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
I am so glad you gave
