It was a gathering of some 300 people In the little church the crowd began to swell Quite a send off for a simple country farmer For many loved and knew the old man well
And as his bride of 60 years came forward She bravely walked to where his body lay A hush fell over all that stood around her She smiled through tears as she began to say
I will see you again For this isn't the end You're my forever friend And I will see you again
Ever since a simple carpenter from Nazareth Walked the mountains and the shores of Galilee
Ever since he died and rose again on Easter Death doesn't have the same old victory
Tonight I'll lay my head upon his pillow And cry until the breaking of the day But even in the pain of separation There's a hope inside my heart that lets me say
Chorus
Jesus, He made a way There is coming a day So I will hold on
