What Will I Say

When the day comes 
For me to fly away to a happier place,
What will I say 
When I meet my Saviour face to face? 
Will I tell Him 
how much I prayed day and night? 
Or will I tell Him 
how much i cried? 
Will I tell Him how many souls I help save?
Or will I tell Him 
How many strayed away?
Will I tell Him 
How I served Him so?
Or will I tell Him 
That I had to let go? 
Will I tell Him 
That I always went to church?
Or will I tell Him 
Of all my pain and hurt?
Will I tell Him 
That I tried to read His Word?
Or will I tell Him 
That it was His Word that I only heard?
Will I tell Him
That I prayed late at night? 
Or will I tell Him 
I never had enough time? 
Will I tell Him 
How I spoke of The Gospel? 
Or will I tell Him 
I spent my time gossiping?
Will I tell Him 
I changed my ways ? 
Or will I tell Him 
I strayed away?
Will I tell Him 
I served Him with all of my heart? 
Or will I tell Him 
I didnt give it my all? 
When the day comes 
For me to fly away to a happier place, 
I want something to say 
When I meet my saviour face to face.
BUT-
              What will I say??
