Meeting in the Air

Meeting in the Air - Helen Bonchek Schneyer/Unknown

You have heard of little Moses in the bull rush

You have heard of fearless David and his sling

You have heard the story told of dreaming Joseph

And of Jonah and the whale you often sing

There are many many others through the bible

I should like to meet them all I do declare

By and by the lord will surely

Let us meet them

At that meeting in the air

There's going to be

A meeting in the air

In that sweet sweet bye and bye

I'm going to meet you

Meet you over there

In that home beyond the sky

So the singing you will hear

Never heard by mortals ears

Will be glorious I do declare

And God's own son

Will be the leading one

At that meeting in the air

Many things will there be

Missing in that meeting

For the mourner's bench

Will have no place at all

There will never be a sermon

Preached to sinners

For the sinners had refused

To heed the call

There will be no mourning

Over wayward loved ones

There will be no lonely nights

Of pleading prayer

All our burdens and our anguish

Will be lifted

At that meeting in the air

There's going to be

A meeting in the air

In the sweet sweet bye and bye

I'm going to meet you

Meet you over there

In that home beyond the sky

Such singing you will hear

Never heard by mortal ear

It will be glorious I do declare

And God's own son

Will be the leading one

At the meeting in the air
