When You Close Your Eyes
When You Close Your Eyes
Author: Mark V. Markov
Dearest, don’t be scared of sight
And do please understand
The everlasting hope, an everlasting life
This love reality
Heaven is in the palm of God’s hand
And it’s waiting there for you
We can be
Forever true
In time of tragedy
When you close your eyes forever
You will be forever changed
When you close your eyes forever
You will never be the same.
Over the deep beyond the sleep
Towards eternity
As we believe in Jesus Christ,
Elohim will raise us,
From the grave
Will you ever accept Him?
You’ll never be the same
Would you ever trust Him?
And call on His name
In this life
Let it be this one wish,
For all of us to be,
With our Savior,
Lord Jesus Christ.
When you close your eyes forever
You will be forever changed
When you close your eyes forever
You will never be the same...
