Cloud Of Witnesses Lyrics

We watched them runnin' down the aisles
Children's time, Sunday morning
The preacher asked them who they lovedThey all smiled and started pointing to their mom
Their dad, the teacher from their kindergarten class
And each and every one had just come fromA cloud of witnesses
That would see them through the years
Cheer them with a smile
And pray them through the tearsA cloud of witnesses
That would see them to the end
And shower them with love that never ends
A cloud of witnessesThey stuck together through the years
The best of friends faith could foster
So when they found out one of them
Had heard the news he'd lost his fatherThey ran to him and prayed
And put their hands upon his head
And slowly one by one
They'd all becomeA cloud of witnesses
As they sent above a prayer

They took a hold of hands and
Circled 'round a friendA cloud of witnesses
With a faith just like a rock
They helped him give his father back to God
As a cloud of witnessesSo when it comes the time
That heaven calls
They'll come running to see the
Ones who've gone beforeAnd made the journey home to find
Waiting for them at the finish line
Cheerin' happily they will run
And they will seeA cloud of witnesses
Lined up on a street of gold
As they run the final mile
That leads them to a throneAnd through the cloud of witnesses
They see God upon the throne
And as they fall into His arms
They know they're home in
A cloud of witnessesSurrounded by a cloud of witnesses
We watched them runnin' down the aisles
Children's time, Sunday morning
