Lyrics
I can see you, standing in the darkness. You feel alone.
I see your beauty, you try to hide it but it's mine. I put it there.
I remember your pain
How hard it is just to leave this world behind.
But I'm calling, calling out to you
Won't you reach out - take my hand.
Can't you see me standing in the light
I want to hold you - forever in my arms
I'm gonna reach you in a way you can't deny
I'm gonna love you, by giving my life.
And I'm calling, crying out for you
Father forgive them for they know not what they do
And I'm reaching out through eternity
Won't you take my hand - come live with me
Eternally -forever in the arms of your Savior your Lover your Lord
Eternally - where the streets are made with gold
In my Father's house
Can't you see the desire that's in your heart is for me
And I'm calling, crying out for you
Father forgive them for they know not what they do
And I'm reaching out through eternity
Won't you take my hand - come live with me
Eternally -forever in the arms of your Savior your Lover your Lord
Eternally - where the streets are made with gold
In my Father's house - come live with me
Eternally - forever in my arms
Eternally - your lover your lord
Eternally - where the streets are made with gold
In my Father's house
Eternally. . .
