I Saw the Lord

The place was white as snow And pure as finest gold. It had the look of new, Yet had the look of old. I felt like I was home, But felt so far away, In fear I thought to leave, But felt the urge to stay. And then a silence fell Like none I'd ever known. I stood among the millions, I stood there all alone. His face was like the sun, His eyes were like the sea, His voice was like the thunder Rolling through eternity. And... I saw the Lord He was high and lifted up And rightfully adored And... I saw the Lord And He saw me And then from sleep awakened I looked into the night. The darkness overtaken By a bright and shining light. I couldn't understand it I couldn't reason how, And then my eyes beheld Him I wasn't dreaming now And... I saw the Lord He was high and lifted up And rightfully adored, And... I saw the Lord And He saw me.
