When I Breathe My Last Breath

Lord when I breathe my last breath I wanted to see you waiting Waiting for me on heaven’s door With your arms open wide I have forsaken and forgotten you Lord And I had fallen most of my lifetime Yet thy gentle hands had carry me To the safe refuge of your presence O Lord your mercy Overwhelms me Your blessings Had me never wanting And your love Had saved my soul To be my Lord I am humbled and rejoicing That man in sinful nature you have loved and saved. Lord when I had breathed my last breath People will cry and be lonely Yet me I am rejoicing For I will meet you in heaven and spend eternity with you I don’t want to wait for my last breath To share your goodness to people We are lost and transgressed But I will walk with you and lead people to you O Lord of this world Give me thy ways Help me with your guidance And let me be a channel of your blessings – 3-26-07
