[Bb] [F]
[C] [F] [D] [G]
[F] I was standing by the bedside [Bb] of a neighbor who [F] was just about to cross the [C] swelling tide.
[F] And I asked him if he would do me [Bb] a favor,
[F] kindly take this [C] message to the other [F] side.
If you see my Savior tell him that [Bb] you saw me, when [F] you saw me I was on [C] my way.
[F] You may meet some old friend who may [Bb] ask you for me, [F] tell them I am coming [C] home [F] someday.
Though you have to make the journey [Bb] on without me, [F] it's a debt that sooner or later [C] must be paid.
When [F] you reach the golden city [Bb] think about me, and [F] don't forget to tell [C] my Savior [F] what I say.
If you see my Savior tell him that [Bb] you saw me, when [F] you saw me I was on [C] my way.
You [F] may meet some old friend who may [Bb] ask you for me, just [F] tell them I am [C] coming home [F] someday.
You may come across my father [Bb] and my mother, for the one [F] and the burdens of this life they [C] may recall.
You may [F] chance to see my sister or [Bb] my brother, but please [F] do try to see my [C] Savior first [F] of all.
If you see my Savior tell him that [Bb] you saw me, when [F] you saw me I was on [C] my way.
[F] You may meet some old friend who may [Bb] ask you for me, tell [F] them I am [C] coming home [F] someday.
