My
greatest joy, my highest goal
Is
to see my Savior face to face.
Not
just to enter the pearly gates
And
walk the streets that's paved with gold.
Not
just to tour the myriad world
And
enjoy the beauty they unfold.
Not
just to hear the angels sing,
And
join the anthem with heavenly ring.
My
greatest joy, my highest goal
Is
to see my Savior face to face.
To
talk to him who walked with me,
Who
talked to me and cried with me.
Who
laughed with me and guided me
When
the way was so dark I could not see.
Who
shared my joys and felt my pain
And
gave me peace I can't explain.
And
happiness the world can't give,
Who
gave his life that I might live.
My
greatest joy my highest goal
Is
to see my Savior face to face.
To
bow in adoration at his feet,
And
give him thanks for saving me,
To
be with him through eternity.
