Bill & Gloria Gaither and Their Homecoming Friends feat. Ivan Parker Lyrics
"Thank You"

I dreamed I went to heaven and you were there with me,
We walked upon the streets of Gold, around the crystal sea,
We heard these angels singing, Then someone called your name ,
We turned and saw a young man and he was smiling as he came.

He said " Friend, you may not know me now" Then he said "But wait"
"you used to teach my Sunday school when I was only 8"
"Every week you would say a prayer before the class would start.
One day when you said that prayer, I asked Jesus into my heart"
Chorus:
Thank you for giving to the Lord
I am a life that was changed.
Thank you for giving to the Lord.
I am so glad you gave

Then another man stood before you and said "remember the time
A missionary came to your church and his pictures made you cry,
You didn't have much money, but you gave it anyway,
Jesus took that gift you gave and that's why I'm here today."

Chorus repeat

One by one they came, Far as the eye could see,
Each life somehow touched by your generosity,
Little things that you had done, Sacrifices made,
Unnoticed on the Earth, In Heaven now proclaimed.

I know up in Heaven, You're not supposed to cry,
I am almost sure there were tears in your eyes,
As Jesus took your hand, and you stood before the Lord,
He said "My child, Look around you, For great is your reward."

Repeat Chorus

I am so glad you gave
