I wish you could have known her,
The way she touched Heaven when she prayed,
I wish you could have seen the way
She lived a life of faith
And I know it may seem selfish,
For me to feel this way,
But what I'd give see that smile,
Just one more time, just one more day
But it's one more reason to go,
One more reason it feels like home,
One more reason my heart is longing
For a place I've never known
One more reason to trust,
One more reason to not give up,
And when God calls my name I'll know
It's one more reason to go
Sometimes I look around me,
And think about the blessings I've been shown,
And yet He's promised so much more
Than all I've ever known
So I live each day believing
When my race on earth is run
I'll gladly trade this life I love
To hear the words, "My child, well done."
And it's one more reason to go,
One more reason it feels like home,
One more reason my heart is longing
For a place I've never known
One more reason to trust,
One more reason to not give up,
And when God calls my name I'll know
It's one more reason to go
As if mansions, crowns, and streets of gold were not enough,
I will finally look into the eyes of perfect love
That I've been dreaming of
And it's one more reason to go,
One more reason it feels like home,
One more reason my heart is longing
For a place I've never known
One more reason to trust,
One more reason to not give up,
And when God calls my name I'll know
It's one more reason to go
And when God calls my name I'll know
It's one more reason to go
