Heaven’s Bridge (Mid-Tempo)

                   HEAVEN’S BRIDGE

 

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH

LOST IN THE WORLD OF DREAMS

I SAW A BRIDGE LEADING TO HEAVEN

THAT STRETCHED AS HIGH AS I COULD SEE

DESCENDING TO THE WORLD BELOW

I WONDERED WHAT IT COULD MEAN

AN ANGEL TOUCHED MY SHOULDER

AND EXPLAINED IT ALL TO ME

 

CHORUS:

THIS BRIDGE THAT LEADS TO HEAVEN

WASN’T PAVED BY WORKS OR DEEDS

IT WASN’T BUILT ON GOOD INTENTIONS

OR ANY OTHER EARTHLY THING

ITS FOUNDATION WAS LAID LONG AGO

BY THE FATHER ABOVE

THIS BRIDGE WAS BUILT BY JESUS

IT’S MADE OF PURE LOVE  

 

STANDING THERE IN SILENCE

LOOKING AT THIS BRIDGE OF LIGHT

I SAW AN OLD MAN ASCENDING

GROWING YOUNGER WITH EACH STRIDE

A CHILD IN THE ARMS OF AN ANGEL

CARRIED UP THE BRIDGE IN FLIGHT

IN THE DISTANCE I HEARD SINGING

I KNEW THE ANGEL MUST BE RIGHT

CHORUS:

 

THE ANGEL TURNED WHEN LEAVING

AND SAID DO YOU KNOW THE SON

I THOUGHT OF ALL MY FAILURES

AND THINGS I SHOULD HAVE DONE

I BOWED MY HEAD IN SORROW

NODDED YES BUT FELT ASHAMED

HE SAID THIS BRIDGE IS FOR YOU

THAT’S THE REASON THAT HE CAME

CHORUS:
