Sorry, I Never Knew You

Here are the words to the accompainiment Cd I bought. I hope to have it learned so I can sing it in church soon.
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 knees to pray
The Lord He sadly shook His head and this I heard Him say

Sorry I never knew you. Depart from me forever more
Sorry I never knew you. Go and serve the one that you have served before.

I thought the time had fully come that I must stand my trial
I told the Lord that I had been a Christian all the while
But through His book He took a look and sadly shook His head
Then placed me over on His left and this I heard Him say

Sorry I never knew you, I find no record of your birth
Sorry I never knew you, go and serve the one that you served down on earth

There were my husband and children, I heard their loving voice
They must have been so happy, oh how they did rejoice
With robes of white around them, their faces all aglow
My little girl looked up at me and this I heard her say

Mommy we can't go with you. We must stay here on this beautiful shore
Sorry for we still love you. But you cannot be our Mommy anymore.

Now when I had awakened the tears were in my eyes
And looking all around me and there to my surprise
There were my loving babies and I knew I'd had a dream
So then upon my knees I knelt and for mercy I did scream

Father who art in Heaven I know that You gave Your only Son
Father please forgive me for I want to be ready when You come.

About Me

I am now an RN. I love taking pictures, especially of my grandchildren. I love taking care of people and wish there was more time to do it. Management puts so much paperwork and picky stuff on us we really don't have time to do the job we are destined to do.
