Voices from the Other Side
I still have the message
From the last time that you called
I wish I hadn't been so busy
We could have talked about it all
And when there's no one else around
I sit and listen to the sound of your voice
Well you always had a way
Of saying what I need to hear
Some how you'd make that heavy
On my shoulders disappear
And I'm trying to carry through
In a world without you and it ain't easy, no
They say there's a cloud of witnesses
Cheering everybody on
And in that choir of angels
I know you're the loudest one
Shouting "Keep your eyes on Jesus
And whatever you do
Don't you dare give up the fight"
Yeah, these days that what I hear
When I hear voices from the other side
Seems like I'm at a crossroads
Almost every other day
And standing there I find myself
Wondering what you'd say
When I'm tempted just to quit
Feel like giving in, I remember, yes
They say there's a cloud of witnesses
Cheering everybody on
And in that choir of angels
I know you're the loudest one
Shouting "Keep your eyes on Jesus
And whatever you do
Don't you dare give up the fight"
Yeah, these days that what I hear
When I hear voices from the other side
And when I close my eyes
I can see you standing
With the angels and the Saints
I can hear you telling me
"Whoa, well you just wait
'Cause there really is a heaven
And it's paved with streets of gold
And there really is a Savior
And he's really on the throne
And there's no more separation
No more sorrow, no more pain
And there ain't a single tear in sight
And someday we'll be together just rejoicin'
Yeah these days that's what I hear
When I hear voices from the other side
From the other side
