When I meet my maker
At the open golden gates
He's gonna welcome me home
Where eternity awaits
I'm gonna run into His arms
I'm gonna stare into His eyes
The ones that I've been seeking
The ones that never left my side
When I meet my maker
We'll walk on Heaven's boulevard
Up above the clouds
In between the stars
And I'll ask Him all my questions
And He'll answer with a smile
I'll tell Him how I love him
And I'll thank Him for my life
Ooh
When I meet my maker
I'm gonna know it's the right time
'Cause He'll have a reason
And I'll understand why
He'll tell me that it's alright
I'll tell Him how I miss you
He'll show me how to watch over
From the front row with the perfect view
Ooh
When I meet my maker
Gonna ask Him for some wings
He'll introduce me to His angels
In their choir I will sing
He'll tell me that He's proud
And I'm probably gonna cry
He'll take my hand
And together we will fly
Ooh
When I meet my maker
Ooh
When I meet my maker
