For many years I have sung to you
Expressing a history of singing to the audience over the years.
And the most of you I know by your first name
Acknowledging familiarity with most audience members by their first names.
But I want to see you in Heaven
Expressing a desire to see the audience in Heaven.
Cause without you, friend, it just won't be the same
Stating that Heaven won't be the same without the audience/friends.
Oh I want to see you in Heaven
Reiterating the desire to see the audience in Heaven.
When this, this old life down here is through
Referring to the end of life on earth and the transition to the afterlife.
And when we sing Amazing Grace
Anticipating singing "Amazing Grace" in Heaven.
Oh I want to see your face
Expressing the desire to see the faces of friends while singing.
Just to know that my friends made it through
Emphasizing the importance of knowing that friends have made it through to Heaven.
I hope you've made your reservation
Encouraging the audience to secure their place in Heaven.
To the biggest singing we have ever known
Envisioning a grand singing event in Heaven.
And all the angels will be listening
Imagining angels listening to the performance.
When we introduce a brand new song
Anticipating the introduction of a new song in Heaven.
Oh I want to see you in Heaven
Reiterating the desire to see the audience in Heaven.
When this, this old life down here is through
Reiterating the idea of the end of life on earth and the transition to Heaven.
And when we sing Amazing Grace
Reaffirming the intention to sing "Amazing Grace" in Heaven.
Oh I want to see your face
Reiterating the desire to see the faces of friends while singing in Heaven.
Just to know that my friends made it through
Reemphasizing the importance of knowing that friends have made it through to Heaven.
And when we sing Amazing Grace
Reaffirming the anticipation of singing "Amazing Grace" in Heaven.
Oh I want to see your face
Reiterating the desire to see the faces of friends while singing in Heaven.
Just to know that my friends made it through
Reemphasizing the importance of knowing that friends have made it through to Heaven.
