Bill Gaither & Gloria Gaither Thank You lyrics

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 these angels singing
Then someone called your name
You turned and saw this young man
He was smiling as he came

And he said, "Friend, you may not know me now"
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
One day when you said that prayer
I asked Jesus in my heart”

So thank you, for giving to the Lord
'Cause 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 in heaven today

And he said, "Thank you for giving to the Lord
'Cause 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 your eyes could see
Each life somehow touched
By your generosity

Little things that you had done
Sacrifices you made
But they were unnoticed on the earth
And heaven now proclaimed

And I know up in heaven
They say you're not supposed to cry
But I am almost sure
I saw tears in your eyes

As Jesus took your hand
And you stood before the Lord
He said, "My child, look around you
Great is your reward"

Thank you for giving to the Lord
'Cause I am a life that was changed
Thank you for giving to the Lord
I am so glad you gave

Oh, 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
