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 pray
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
