You Shall Be With Me
See me bowing down, head uplifted there
Heart wounded, and bandaged in tear
At the cross alone, so naked and bare
The crowd gone, I tarry here
To hear him say, today, today, today
Your sins are all washed away
And in paradise you shall be with me
Sin no more, you shall be with me.
See me wandering the earth, scorned and lost
Homeless in the crowd, hearts like stones
A hungry despised being, an outcast
For you, my love, my love atones
And hear me say, today, today, today
Your sins are all washed away
And in paradise you shall be with me
Sin no more, you shall be with me
O savior, feeling too, all I feel
You feel like me, my feelings share
The cross the acme of your pain and zeal
Your crown, my robe, exchange them here
And say again, today, today, today
Your sins are all washed away
And paradise too you shall share with me
Sin no more, you shall be with me
