Meet Me On Heaven's Dock
When death’s ship leaves this earthly port,
And it’s the final minutes of my time clock
Greet me there when my ship comes in
Please meet me on Heaven’s dock.
Have my kin folks there, have everyone waiting
Have them waiting with arms open wide.
Welcome me in from the journey long,
As into Heaven’s harbor I glide.
When I depart this life, and move onto the next
And I’m into Thine presence with Thee.
Whatever it takes to get there,
Oh, please Lord let it be.
So when death’s ship leaves this earthly port,
And it’s past midnight’s o’clock.
I’m expecting to see you meet me there,
Just meet me on Heavens Dock.
