I know when You were here You spoke a lot of words To disturb the comfortable And comfort the disturbed But those who knew You best Must have wondered why You never said goodbye You said Lo, I'm with you always Always know that I'm Making preparations In a world beyond all time Where we never say goodbye I know when You were here The people gathered 'round To hear You tell of prodigals And treasures lost and found And some folks understood And some folks didn't try Still, You never said goodbye You said Lo, I'm with you always Always know that I'm Making preparations In a world beyond all time Where we never say goodbye I know when You were here Whenever You would speak The lame would walk, the blind would see Your talk was never cheap And when the time had come You said You had to die But You never said goodbye You said Lo, I'm with you always Always know that I'm Making preparations In a world beyond all time Where we never say goodbye
