A companion poem to “Why?“

As I walk to the beginning,
of Creation, I shall see.
There my precious Jesus,
with His arms outstretched to me.

As I approach Him standing there,
I’ll see the Smile on His face.
I’ll know that He’s waited patiently,
to hold me in His embrace.

Jesus, Jesus, I want to be with you.
Jesus, Jesus, I know you’ll come back soon.
Jesus, Jesus, I want to hold your hand.
Walk along the beach, see our footprints in the sand.

You’ve taught me by your Holy Word,
to live my life for Thee.
You’ve guided & directed,
now I’m yours for eternity.

Jesus, I can’t thank You,
for all that you have done.
But by Your Holy Spirit,
victory has been won.

Jesus, Jesus, I want to be with you.
Jesus, Jesus, I know you’ll come back soon.
Jesus, Jesus, I want to hold your hand.
Walk along the beach, see our footprints in the sand.

I’m home at last and in Your care,
full of joy & peace and praise for Thee.
You’ve held me close for all the years,
my soul’s complete & fully free.

I finally understand your love for me,
as I stand before your throne.
To finally see your loving face,
and know I’m really home.

Jesus, Jesus, I want to be with you.
Jesus, Jesus, I know you’ll come back soon.
Jesus, Jesus, I want to hold your hand.
Walk along the beach, see our footprints in the sand.
