Lyrics
"I Plan To See Jesus Today"
Verse 1 -
We stood 'round his bed of affliction
We knew he was well on his way
And we prayed in those few final moments
And listened for what he would say
Chorus -
I feel I could soar like an eagle
Like these angels who'll bear me away
And I've changed my plans for tomorrow
Cause I plan to see Jesus today
Verse 2 -
Sure we cried as we gathered the flowers
And we watched as they laid him away
Ah but we smile as we pause to remember
To remember what he'd had to say
To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord
