Hou Die Hemel Oop(original) |
| Ek’s n sondaar, ek weet |
| Ek het baie harte seer gemaak |
| En baie al gebreuk |
| My gewete is gebrand |
| Ek het te veel keur gekies teen rede en verstand |
| Maar ek is uitoorle ek het oor gegee aan wie ek is |
| So hou die hemel oop vir as ek kom |
| Eendag as die tyd vir my sou kom |
| Dalk is dit nie nou maar ek’s gereed |
| Dalk is dit vandag net die Here weet |
| Net die Here weet |
| Ek was verlore maar nou gevind |
| En sonder die gewig haal ek asem soos 'n kind |
| Daar wys 'n vinger na wie ek was |
| Maar ek het bitter gou geleer |
| Ek is witter as wit gewas |
| Ek sien waar ek behoort 'n ewigheid van hoop en wie Hy is |
| So hou die hemel oop vir as ek kom |
| Eendag as die tyd vir my sou kom |
| Dalk is dit nie nou maar ek’s gereed |
| Dalk is dit vandag net die Here weet |
| Net die Here weet |
| Sê my wat jy glo aan di einde |
| Die waarheid is jou en myne |
| Ons lewe eers di lug |
| Die vrede wat my hart verloor |
| Sê my wat jy glo aan di einde |
| Hou di hemel oop vir as ek kom |
| Eendag as die tyd vir my sou kom |
| Dalk is dit ni nou maar ek’s gereed |
| Dalk is dit vandag net die Here weet |
| Net die Here weet |
| (translation) |
| I'm a sinner, I know |
| I have hurt many hearts |
| And many already broken |
| My conscience is seared |
| I chose too much against reason and reason |
| But I've learned I've surrendered to who I am |
| So keep the heavens open for when I come |
| One day if the time would come for me |
| Maybe it's not now but I'm ready |
| Maybe today only God knows |
| Only the Lord knows |
| I was lost but now found |
| And without the weight I breathe like a child |
| There's a finger pointing at who I was |
| But I learned very quickly |
| I am washed whiter than white |
| I see where I belong an eternity of hope and who He is |
| So keep the heavens open for when I come |
| One day if the time would come for me |
| Maybe it's not now but I'm ready |
| Maybe today only God knows |
| Only the Lord knows |
| Tell me what you believe in the end |
| The truth is yours and mine |
| We only live in the sky |
| The peace my heart is losing |
| Tell me what you believe in the end |
| Keep the heavens open for when I come |
| One day if the time would come for me |
| Maybe it's not now but I'm ready |
| Maybe today only God knows |
| Only the Lord knows |
