Reunion on Patmos
Dalton Thomas
There on the island, my Lord I did see
I fell at His feet as though dead trembling in glory
I’ve been yearning for years now yearning to be
Near to my Friend again as in my memories of Galilee
Oh I’ve missed Him so
More than words can say just how much I ache
To see my friend again
There on the island I saw His face burning like the Sun
His voice like a torrent of waters
His feet like burnished bronze
In those hands once scarred, now holding seven stars
And the keys to death and hell, our Conqueror’s reward
In His eyes were flames, in His mouth a double sword
The One I knew as Savior, I beheld as Lord
Oh I’ve missed Him so; Oh, I’ve missed Him so
More than words can say just how much I ache
To see my friend again
And I am homesick, lovesick; this paradox in me
It’s better when You’re here but You said it’s better if You leave
Maybe this is what You meant back then
Knowing what it would do in me
I am haunted by the memories of
Those days in Galilee
And I am homesick, lovesick; this paradox in me
It’s better when You’re here but You said it’s better if You leave
Maybe this is what You meant back then
Knowing what it would do in me
I am haunted by the memories
Of my friend from Galilee
Oh I’ve missed You so; O, I’ve missed You so
More than words can say just how much I ache
To see my friend again
How I miss You so
How I miss You so
More than words can say
Just how much I ache
To see Your face again
