When I Get Where I'm Going - I Can Only Imagine

I don't listen to country music that much now-a-days. I have in the past - I've seen George Strait (5 times), Randy Travis, Earl Thomas Conley, Reba McIntyre, John Michael Montgomery and Garth Brooks in concert.

Last night I was reminded of why I enjoyed country music. I heard the beautiful song "When I Get Where I'm Going" by Brad Paisley with Dolly Parton at a memorial service. The memorial service was for Mr. Jerry Toler from our church. This song and the others sung and played (as well as the words spoken) were such sweet tributes to him and his life.

I added "I Can Only Imagine" to the playlist the other day upon learning of Mr. Jerry's passing. I could not only imagine, but I could see Mr. Jerry complete and whole worshipping God.

Surrounded by His glory how will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still?
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah?
Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine
