i know this isn't a traditional worship song, but i love it!:
"i dreamed i went to heaven and you were there with me
we walked upon the streets of gold beside the crystal sea
we heard the angels singing and someone called your name
we turned and saw this young man and he was smiling as he came
he said "friend, you may not know me now" then he said "but wait
you used to teach my sunday school when i was only eight
every week you would say a prayer before the class would start
one day when you said that prayer i let Jesus in my heart"
*Thank you for giving to the Lord, I am a life that was changed
thank you for giving to the Lord, I am so glad you gave*
and then another man stood before you and said "remember the time
a missionary came to your church whose pictures made you cry
you didn't have much money but you gave it anyway
and Jesus took that gift you gave, and that's why i'm here today"
*thank you for giving to the Lord, for I am a life that was changed
thank you for giving to the Lord, I am so glad you gave*
one by one they came, far as the eye could see
each life somehow touched by your generosity
little things that you had done
sacrifices made -
unnoticed on the earth,
in heaven - now proclaimed
and i know up in heaven, you're not supposed to cry
but i am almost sure, there were tears in your eyes
as Jesus took your hand, and you stood before the Lord
and He said "my child, look around you, for great is your reward"
*thank you for giving to the Lord, for i am a life that was changed
thank you for giving to the Lord, i am so glad you gave"
