I Dreamed I Searched Heaven for You

I Dreamed I Searched Heaven for You - Kitty Wells

I dreamed I had gone to that city

That city where never comes night

And I saw the bright angels in glory

I saw the fair mansions of light

I gazed for long long years of rapture

On the face of my savior so true

And I sang with the seraphim holy

Then I dreamed I searched heaven for you

I dreamed I searched heaven for you

Searched vainly through heaven for you

Oh won't you prepare to meet me up there

Lest we should search heaven for you

I looked on both sides of the river

That flows through the city of God

I searched through bright mansions celestial

And streets of gold pavement I trod

The faces of saints by the million

I scanned in my yearning to see

That face I had cherished so fondly

The face that had grown dear to me

I dreamed I searched heaven for you

Searched vainly through heaven for you

Oh won't you prepare to meet me up there

Lest we should search heaven for you
