Thank You
by Ray Boltz

I dreamed I went to heaven and you were there with me
We walked upon the streets of gold beside the crystal sea
We heard the angels singing, then someone called your name
You turned and saw this young man and he was smiling as he came
And he said, "Friend you may not know me now"
And then he said, "But wait! You used to teach my Sunday School
When I was only eight and every week you would say a prayer
Before the class would start and one day when you said that prayer
I asked Jesus in my heart!"

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 the gift you gave and that's why I'm here today!"

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

One by one they came, far as the eyes 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
And I know that up in heaven you're not supposed to cry
But 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!"

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
I am so glad you gave

Took this from En's blog. I am blessed as I blog.

THanks En
