Sorry, I Never Knew You
Last night as I lay sleeping a dream came to me.
I dreamed about the end of time, about eternity.
I saw a million sinners fall on their face and pray
The Lord just sadly looked at them and this I heard Him say:
Sorry, I never knew you, I have no record of your birth.
Sorry, I never knew you go serve the one that you served while on earth.
Well I thought that the time has surely come when I must face my trials
And I told the Lord that I had been a Christian all the while.
And through his book he took a look and sadly shook his head
He placed me over on the left and this is what he said:
Sorry, I never knew you, I have no record of your birth.
Sorry, I never knew you go serve the one that you served while on earth.
Well I saw my wife and children, I heard their loving voice.
They must have been so happy, O how they did rejoice.
Their robes of white around them, a crown upon their head.
My little girl looked up to me and this is what she said:
Daddy, we can't go with you, we must dwell in the joy of our Lord.
Sorry, but we still love you, but you'll never be our Daddy anymore.
And then I awakened, the tears were in my eyes
And looking all around me and there to my surprise
There was my wife and children, I knew it was a dream.
So kneeling at my bedside you should have heard me scream!
Father who art in Heaven, I know you gave your only Son.
Forgive me and let me serve thee, for I want to be ready when He comes.
