I had a dream that I was with You
And in this dream
You took my hand

Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)

We walked along
The streets of Heaven
With pearly gates
And crystal sea

Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)

We came upon
Two empty places
And as we stood
You looked at me

Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You (Yes I long to be with You)

You told me this was for my friend
The one I never told of You, of You, of You

Then I awoke
And knew the truth
There is one thing
I have to do

That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)
That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)
That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)
That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)

Now I tell them of Your love
All my friends they have to know
About You
Now I tell them of Your love
All my friends they have to know
About You
About You
About You

Dreams tell a story when we sleep and for the words in the order it has been placed in this song. I see it leaves a clear view of how we have to tell two by two as they marched into the ark and out again... Longing to be with the almighty heavenly father is coming and we are here waiting and still dreaming to spread the word of his Love and Return

may the Lord guide our paths in telling the word of GOD...

This is a beautiful website. One of my favorite, joyful things to do is praise the Lord. This song, in it's simplicity, just has me dreaming along in the moment, and then realizing how we must tell everyone of His love; it is our duty. Just love it, I can get lost in this one. It is beautiful! Thank you for it.

So peaceful, and carries a simple, yet powerful message, of our Christian duty to carry the flame of Christ's love with us wherever we go, making a difference, adding the Gospel truth to our daily lives.

At times, we tend to forget about Our Lord in our daily life and our responsibilities as christian. this song is indeed a good reminder of what we should do as christian when we are with others. I love the simple tune and more so the lyric

this song emphasize Jesus wants us to tell the people that still don't know the Lord about Him. So that, they, too, can be saved like us and they would not end with where Satan will be at the end of time. Hallelujah!

This song is so beautifully portrayed and sung. It's beauty is spirit "Deep" and makes me want to hear it over and over. It makes one aware that we not only need to tell others about Christ, but implants longing, to tell others about Him.
