I Can Only Imagine

Every time I go to Eucharistic Adoration, a song comes to mind. "I Can Only Imagine" is a song about wondering what Heaven will be like and what will it be like to see Jesus face to face. Part of me already knows, because in Adoration that is exactly what I do. I sink to my knees before Him in praise and prayer and eventually rise to read and send Him longing glances. Every Adoration experience for me can be summed up with a simple phrase, "my fears are gone, I could sit here forever".

Now the words to that song by MercyMe:

I can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk
By your side

I can only imagine
What my eyes will see
When your face
Is before me
I can only imagine

I can only imagine

[Chorus:]
Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all

I can only imagine

I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When that day comes
When I find myself
Standing in the Son

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine

I can only imagine

[Chorus]

I can only imagine [x2]

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship you

I can only imagine
