I'll see you in the Springtime
After the battle is won
I know I'm crossin over
As far as we have come
And I want your hand in mine, dear
As we face that shining dawn
Eyes open
I'm hoping
You'll be there with me
So gently
I want your hand in mine
I want you by my side
In the midst
Of our great victory

The storm clouds had all gathered
We drew our forces nigh
And entered into battle
Though it clamoured to the sky
And we faced that fateful lightning
With saints on our side
Eyes open I'll follow that lonesome road
To the top of the mountain
Where the fire is blazing
And the heat is astounding
What's even more amazing
Is to see you by my side
