Dear Lord, I now address you, and tell you I can't see How you could give your precious life for a human wretch like me But if it would be possible to thank you face to face I would give a million words like this to be with you in that place Please hear my prayer, my Savior, and please don't make it long 'Till I can leave and share with you the feelings of this song 'Cause I am so weak and sinful, oh, who else could plead my case? I would give a million words like this to be with you in that place Be kind to me, oh, father, when Judgment Day draws near I'll serve you and I'll praise your name while I'm waiting here And if I could be honored just to gaze upon your face I would give you a million words like this to be with you in that place.
