lyrics

The Saints Who've Gone Before
Denes McIntosh

I thought I'd write a song
for the people who went on before me
the saints who worked so long
serving Jesus, they've gone on to glory.

Chorus:
Well I appreciate the way you shone
your light before the city.
You kept the faith
and sometimes even gave your life
It's such a pity
that we didn't get to meet
while you were here.

You fought the battles well
by what you taught me I can tell you really knew Him.
The evidence remains, the testimony of the saints
that you led to Him.

Chorus:

If your loved ones have gone on
to the kingdom far beyond the ones that we see
We'll meet them in the air, everybody will be there
They'll come in glory.

Chorus:
And they'll appreciate the way we shone
our lights before the city.
We'll have kept the faith
and even given up our lives
It's not a pity.
We'll rejoice together then before the Lord.
