All the granddaughters sang at my Mom's funeral

They are practicing here.  My camera kept cutting off, but I got part of it.  My brother later recorded the whole song, but this one has all the granddaughters.




v. 1 When I enter Heaven's glory,
And I see my Saviour's face,
I will offer Him ten thousand years of praise.
Then I'll find that special one
In whose life I saw God's Son,
And through tears of joy with trembling lips these words I'll say:

♫ I saw Jesus in you;
I saw Jesus in you.
I could hear His voice in the words you said -
I saw Jesus in you.
In your eyes I saw His care;
I could see His Love was there;
You were faithful,
And I saw Jesus in you.

v. 2 When I stand before my Father
To receive my life's reward,
And my soul is bathed in God's eternal day;
When this race on earth is run,
And God sees the works I've done,
More than anything I long to hear my Father say:

♫ I saw Jesus in you;
I saw Jesus in you.
I could hear His voice in the words you said -
I saw Jesus in you.
In your eyes I saw His care;
I could see His Love was there;
You were faithful,
And I saw Jesus in you.

This was THE perfect song for my Mom. ♥

The next day, the remaining girls sang it again so I could at least get the full chorus.

  2. Thank you so much, Michelle.
    When I first saw the words to this song that dd had found, I knew it would be perfect for my mom. Then I learned that the girls already were planning to sing it. =)
    It's like it was written just for her. ♥
