Lyrics
(I see Jesus standing waiting for me)
I see Jesus standing, waiting for me
Once a man named Steven preached about the Lord
Steven preached about the Lord
Folks were saved then folks were healed as they heard his word
Folks were saved and healed as they heard his word
Satan did not like it soon he had his crowd
Satan opposed Steven's message, gathering a crowd
And as he was tried they heard Steven cried aloud
During Steven's trial, he cried aloud
I see Jesus standing at the father's right end I see Jesus over in the Promised Land
I see Jesus standing at the father's right and over in the Promised Land
Work is over now I'm coming to be I see Jesus standing waiting for me
Work is over, and he's coming to be with Jesus who is waiting for him
As the stones fell on him beating out his life
Stones fell on Steven as his life was beaten out
Steven knew he'd soon be through with all toil and strife
Steven anticipated the end of toil and strife
So much like a Master with a heart so true
Steven resembled the Master with a true heart
He prayed Lord forgive them for they know not what they do
He prayed for forgiveness for those who persecuted him
Through the gates of glory down the streets of gold
Through the gates of glory, down the streets of gold
March the hero on the Lord into heaven's fold
The hero marches into heaven's fold
When he met the Saviour at the great white throne
Meeting the Savior at the great white throne
I believed he smiled and said Steven welcome home
It is believed that the Savior welcomed Steven home with a smile
I see Jesus...
Reiteration of seeing Jesus standing and waiting for him
(I see you standing waiting for me)
