Story behind the song
Wrote this during a church service while not listening to the message. ...Well, ok, I wrote this during a church service, BECAUSE I was listening to the message.
Lyrics
Verse 1: I dreamt last night that Jesus Had called His children home I was carried there on angels' wings To stand before His throne Millions stood there with me Many friends I'd known before And as each one came before Him He gave them their reward. Chorus: A reward for their service unto Him Much more than they could ever comprehend Pressed down and spilling over As much as He could bless And each received a mansion And a crown of Righteousness. Verse 2: When it came to my turn The Lord turned me away. He said He gave me talents And I buried them away. And He'd wanted so to bless me If I'd only served the Lord So I choked back tears and turned from Him With nothing for reward. Chorus: A reward for their service unto Him Much more than they could ever comprehend Pressed down and spilling over He had wanted so to bless And to give to me a mansion And a crown of Righteousness. Verse 3: I walked past jeweled palaces Upon a golden street No coat upon my back and no shoes upon my feet. Many gave me food to eat And a place inside their homes But I couldn't help but wish I had A place to call my own. Chorus: A reward for their service unto Him Much more than they could ever comprehend Pressed down and spilling over He had wanted so to bless And to give to me a mansion And a crown of Righteousness. Verse 4: I woke up almost almost instantly With one thought on my mind I had to tell you of my dream While we still have time For I know He wants to bless us For our service to the Lord And you and I must glorify His name with our reward. Chorus: A reward for our service unto Him Much more than we could ever comprehend Pressed down and spilling over As much as He can bless With a gold and marble mansion And a crown of righteousness.
