Verse 1
I am feeling low, low in strength,
My body aches, and my courage feels the same.
I was told that I wouldn't be here much longer,
That I would pass away, and leave this pain behind.

Verse 2
The emotions that have come over me
Are hard to explain. I've never felt this way.
I know that God will give me strength,
And carry me through, right to my last day.

Chorus 1
But how can I leave those close to my heart?
Who will care for them when we have to part?
Who will wipe their tears when I'm gone?
Who will help them carry on?
How can I leave those close to my heart?
Who will care for them when we have to part?
Who will wipe their tears when I'm gone?
Who will help them carry on?

Verse 3
No, don't you cry, over me.
I'll still be around, wait and you'll see.
Even closer than I could be now,
Come closer, I'll whisper how.

Chorus 2
Now I thank You, Lord, You've eased my care,
You came to me, arms open wide.
You told me the one who'll care for them
Could still be me, from the Other Side.
Now I thank You, Lord, You've eased my care,
You came to me, arms open wide.
You told me the one who'll care for them
Could still be me, from the Other Side.

Chorus 3
Now I thank You, Lord, You've eased my care,
You came to me, arms open wide.
You told me the one who'll care for them
Could still be me, from the Other Side.

Ending
Say a prayer, talk to me
As if I were there, 'cause I will be there.
Say a prayer, talk to me
As if I were there, 'cause I will be there.

Say a prayer,
Talk to me.
