Sorry I never Knew You
I.
Last night as I was sleeping a dream came to me;I dreamed about the end of time about eternity;I saw a million sinners fall on their knees to pray,
The Lord,He sadly shook His head and this I heard him say;Sorry I never
knew you, depart from me for evermore;Sorry I never knew you,go and serve
the one that you served before.
II.
I thought the time had surely come when I must stand the trial,I told the lord
that I had been a christian all the while;So through His book He took a look
and sadly shook his head;they placed me over on His left and this is what he said;Sorry,I never knew you,I find no record of your birth;Sorry,I never knew you ,go and serve the one you serve down on earth.
III.
There was my wife and children,I heard their loving voice,they must have been so happy,oh,how they did rejoice,with robes of white around them,
and crowns upon their heads;my little girl looked over at me,and this is what she said;daddy,we can't go with you,we must dwell in the joys of our Lord,sorry,but we still love you,but you'll never be our daddy anymore.
IV.
When from sleep I awaken,the tears were in my eyes,and looking all around
me,and there to my surprise,I saw my wife and babies,I knew it was a dream,
then down beside 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
you for I want to be ready when you come.
