Before I Do

I wrote this song after the unexpected death of Mr. Sollers this week. It is written in the perspective of the wife (or loved one) left here.

Before I Do

When I went to sleep that night,
It was the loneliest night I’ve ever had.
‘Cause I was without you.

When I cried awake that night,
It was the longest night I’ve ever cried.
‘Cause I was without you.

But the image you left in my mind
Is a friend who showed God’s love all the time

You get to meet your Maker face to face.
You get to walk the streets of gold in that beautiful place
You get to dance for the King,
Hear the choir of angels sing
Before I do.

When I woke up in the morning,
I lived the longest day I’ve ever lived
‘Cause I was without you.

But the image you left in my mind
Is a friend who showed God's love all the time.

You get to meet your Maker face to face.
You get to walk the streets of gold in that beautiful place
You get to dance for the King,
Hear the choir of angels sing
Before I do

I’ll always remember you
And everyday I’ll thank God for you!

You get to meet your Maker face to face.
You get to walk the streets of gold in that beautiful place
You get to dance for the King,
Hear the choir of angels sing
Before I do (2x)

When I thought of you that night
It was the loveliest thought I’ve ever had...
