When He Stops by Heaven Tonight Lyrics by Dylan Jakobsen

From Where I Began (artist: Dylan Jakobsen)

2016

8 o'clock on a Sunday
Reading on about the news
He was sitting in that old sofa chair
Waiting on that morning pot of coffee brewing up
One cup for him and the other one
Was for the woman in the pictures all around that house
For the girl that he met back at seventeen
Well ain't it a crazy life
Cause now he's turned 85
And everything that he held close is a memory
And that beautiful bride she stands up by Jesus side
Waiting for her husband patiently
Cause down there he's living life
But he's got one thing on his mind
The loving, caring woman that he'll find
When he stops by heaven tonight
10 o'clock on a Sunday
Headed down to that old church
Sitting in the back row looking 'round
And as that preacher man talked
Well those words they hit real deep
Cause every week right next to him he'd save that seat
It's for the woman in the pictures all around that house
For the girl he saved his cash to buy that ring
Well ain't it a crazy life
Cause now he's turned 85
And everything that he held close is a memory
And that beautiful bride she stands up by Jesus side
Waiting for her husband patiently
Cause down there he's living life
But he's got one thing on his mind
The loving, caring woman that he'll find
When he stops by heaven tonight
