I can only imagine what it will be like
When I walk by your side
I can only imagine what my eyes will see
When Your face is before me
I can only imagine
Yeah

Surrounded by Your glory
What 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
I can only imagine

I can only imagine when that day comes
And I find myself standing in the sun
I can only imagine when all I would do is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory
What 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, yeah
I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory
What 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, yeah
I can only imagine

I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
I can only imagine

I can only imagine when all I would do
Is forever, forever worship You
I can only imagine

    I see no reason to interpret this song, the meaning is darn clear. What gets me is the purity of the song, how authentic and sincere. I remember hearing it on the overhead speaker at work a few times, thinking it's a pretty goofy song. Then one day it just kind of stunned me, how much I wanted that joy and hope the singer obviously has. I ended up flying to Reno to his concert,..yeah, me the lifelong "nothing matters" atheist, now I own ALL of Mercyme's albums. I haven't heard a group this good since the Beatles.
