Cloud Of Witnesses Lyrics - Mark Schultz - Mark Schultz

We watched them runnin' down the aisles 

Children's time, Sunday morning 

The preacher asked them who they loved 

They all smiled and started pointing to their mom 

Their dad, the teacher from their kindergarten class 

And each and every one had just come from 

A cloud of witnesses 

That would see them through the years 

Cheer them with a smile 

And pray them through the tears 

A cloud of witnesses 

That would see them to the end 

And shower them with love that never ends 

A cloud of witnesses 

They stuck together through the years 

The best of friends faith could foster 

So when they found out one of them 

Had heard the news he'd lost his father 

They ran to him and prayed 

And put their hands upon his head 

And slowly one by one 

They'd all become 

A cloud of witnesses 

As they sent above a prayer 

They took a hold of hands and 

Circled 'round a friend 

A cloud of witnesses 

With a faith just like a rock 

They helped him give his father back to God 

As a cloud of witnesses 

So when it comes the time 

That heaven calls 

They'll come running to see the 

Ones who've gone before 

And made the journey home to find 

Waiting for them at the finish line 

Cheerin' happily they will run 

And they will see 

A cloud of witnesses 

Lined up on a street of gold 

As they run the final mile 

That leads them to a throne 

And through the cloud of witnesses 

They see God upon the throne 

And as they fall into His arms 

They know they're home in 

A cloud of witnesses 

Surrounded by a cloud of witnesses 

We watched them runnin' down the aisles 

Children's time, Sunday morning
