I had hoped and dreamed
That the Father's grace
Would be here to help me,
Make it through every day.
And then loud and clear
I will see the place
And a voice that's saying
You can live eternally

He waits there for me,
A palace in the heavens
He will show the way,
So I won't be long.
It's not in my mind
But am I just blind?
Will I see the true Lord?
Or have I been told, so wrong?

It's a long hard road,
Still he's standing there
Even though I wonder,
I someday will see him.
For a lifetime here,
I will live by faith
After all my lifetime,
This is how I hope to prove.

He waits there for me,
A palace in the heavens
He will show the way,
Yes through grace he has saved me
I will pray and hope,
But I won't let go.
If I know the Lord then
I'll be good for 'ternity!

There's a love that passes anything you'll find on earth
A love that comes from knowing the true God.

He waits there for me,
If I will accept him
He wants all the world
To accept his love
You cannot fall
If he lends assistance
He will help you live if you will live for him alone.

He will reach his arms
He will give you love
He will show the place in Heaven
Right where you belong!
