If I Met Jesus

I often have thought, what it would be like;
To meet the man that gave up His life.
He suffered and died for us, on the cross;
What a beautiful man, to suffer such loss.

I thought what it would be like to meet this man;
Just what would I see, as before Him I stand.
As I gazed at first, into that wonderful face;
I see total understanding, forgiveness and grace.

I see traces of tears in the past that were shed;
I see a great man and the group that He led.
I see great compassion and a never-ending love;
And I know that I'll be with Him, in Heaven above.

And no greater love has ever been shown;
And, just one look tells me, I am never alone.
I know that one day, I will meet this great Man;
And I know He will love me, for just who I am.

I now have no fear, of leaving this earth;
For, I will be with Him one day, in my rebirth.
