Maybe I Will Be There

1. I wasn’t at the manger Nor at the cruel cross

I didn’t lay Him in the tomb, Feel numb with grief and loss

2. I wasn’t there when He arose To worship at His feet.

I wasn’t in a Nephite land As He taught other sheep.

Chorus: But maybe I will be there When Jesus comes again.

Maybe I will hear His voice and see the angels then.

Surely I will praise His name When ev’ry knee shall bend,

Maybe I will be there when Jesus comes again.

3. I didn’t see the miracles Or walk in Galilee

I didn’t see Him raise the dead, Take children on His knee

4.I never knew the tender smile Or heard Him call me friend.

I wasn’t there to see the pain He suffered for all men.

Chorus:

5.My time is in the latter days When truth has been restored.

And though I’ve never seen His face, I know my Savior’s word.

6. The scriptures say I need not fear If I will but prepare.

Then with the just I’ll be caught up And meet my Savior There

Chorus: And maybe I will be there when Jesus comes again

And maybe I will hear His voice And see the angels then.

Surely I will praise His name When ev’ry knee shall bend

Maybe I will be there When Jesus comes again.

I pray that I will be there when Jesus comes again.
