When we walk again beside the lake

We visit our loved ones
At the grave
Talk to them 
Act so brave
Tell them all 
Those things we do
But listen in
I'm telling you
They cannot hear
They are gone
They're no longer
On the telephone
Can't hear your words
No not a single word you say
They are asleep 
Until that day
When Jesus comes
When He arrives
That's when 
It all comes alive
Those who died
So long ago
Will be brought back
This is what they'll say
I was asleep
I heard not a word
Until the day 
Of our Lord
Then the resurrected 
Shall be judged
By their peers
The angels above
Many will be happy
Many more will be sad
For only those
Who kept the faith
Will walk again
Beside the lake
With Jesus our dear Lord
They'll be awake
In heaven up above
Yes it's true
This is Jesus' gift of love
