Face to Face

I’m on this side of the door
Only God knows what’s on the other side
I’m on this side of Eternity
Only God knows where I’ll reside

All we need to do
Is to open the door
And all we need to heed
Is to open our heart more and more

We are face to face with God
His face the sky
And ours the Earth’s face of multi-race 
The sky His blue eye

Can we see face to face
Can we see eye to eye
Only by God’s grace
Yonder, will we get over by and by 

There may be many wild horses
But we have bridles and stanchions
For the broken and contrite heart
In My Father’s house are many mansions
