There are two YouTube videos I can find with performances of this song, but unfortunately I can't quite make out the words. Perhaps someone can help transcribe them?

So far, here's what I could make out...

the way seems awfully ? sometimes I have seen
if i ? I ? alone.
? my pain and sorrow, I wonder about tomorrow
When it seems that all hope is gone

Over there, I think I just saw Jesus
He was smiling and waving me home
? his returning and awaiting my heart is yearning
I know I'm still heading home

I Just Saw Jesus....written by Val Johnson


The way seems dark before me. So dark, sometimes I can't see
In my confusion, I stumble along.
oh, through eyes of pain and sorrow, I wonder about tomorrow
And it seems, all hope is gone.

Oh, but wait, I think I just saw Jesus
He was smiling and waving me home
oh, my strength is returning
and the way my heart is yearning
I know, I'm still headed home

Though storms of life assail me. Sinful winds, strong they may be
still His love will carry me home
i just look beyond Calvary to a place He's preparing me
and I know I must journey on

oh, but wait, I think I just saw Jesus
Arms open wide, He was standing by the throne
Heaven's gates were open for me
prettiest sights one could ever see
and through His grace,
I know I'll make it home
And through His grace
I know I'll make it home
I'll make it home.

I hope this helps!!! God bless you!!!
