I dreamed I stood at the portal of heaven one day
D7
G
And oh I wanted so to enter in
C
G
But my head bowed in shame when they called my name
D7
G
For there was my life of sin
C
G
Then I could see the cruel nails in the hands of my Lord
D7
As He died for a world that was lost
C
G
Then I woke and I cried have mercy I prayed
D7
G
I had dreamed of the old rugged cross
C
G
I could see the dear Lord as He beckoned to me
D7
G
And He said come to Me I’ll give you rest
C
G
I’ll forgive all your sins and I’ll clench your soul within
D7
G
Then I knew He was the one who loved me best
C
G
Then I could see the cruel nails in the hands of my Lord
D7
As He died for a world that was lost
C
G
Then I woke and I cried have mercy I prayed
D7
G
I had dreamed of the old rugged cross
