In a Little WhileLyrics
Got a ticket coming home,
Wish the officer had known
What a day today has been.
Then I stumbled through the door
Dropping junk mail on the floor
When will this day end?
But then your letter caught my eye
Brought the hope in me to life
'cause you know me very well
And I bet you wrote me
Just to tell me
In a little while,
We'll be with the father
Can't you see him smile? (oh)
In a little while
We'll be home forever
In a while
We're just here to learn to love him
We'll be home in just a little while
Boy, that letter hit the spot
Made me think of all I've got
And all that waits for me.
Guess I've known it all day long
Wonder where my thoughts went wrong
When will my heart believe?
Waking half way through the night
Reaching toward the lamp for light
Picking up the word I find
Here's another letter
To remind me.
In a little while
We'll be with the father
Can't you see him smile? (oh)
In a little while
We'll be home forever
In a while
We're just here to learn to love him
We'll be home in just a little while
Days like these are just a test of our will
Will we walk or will we fall?
Well, I can almost see the top of the hill
And I believe it's worth it all
In a little while
We'll be with the father
Can't you see him smile? (oh)
In a little while,
We'll be home forever
In a while
We're just here to learn to love him
We'll be home in just a little while
In a little while
We'll be with the father
Can't you see him smile? (oh)
In a little while
We'll be home forever
In a while
We're just here to learn to love him
We'll be home in just a little
In a little while
We'll be with the father
Can't you see him smile? (oh)
In a little while,
We'll be home forever
In a while
We're just here to learn to love him;
We'll be home in just a little
In a little while
We'll be with the father
Can't you see him smile? (oh)
In a little while,
We'll be home forever
In a while
We're just here to learn to love him
We'll be home in just a little
In a little while,
We'll be with the father
Can't you see him smile? (oh)

In a Little While?
We've all had those throw-in-the-towel days, the kind that make you want to give it all up. In Amy's song, she sees two letters. The first is from a friend reminding her of the ultimate goal--heaven. The second is from God, with the same reminder, that heaven is our home, and we're only here to learn to serve Him. She bemoans how often she forgets this important truth, but isn't that how it is for all of us! Oldie, but a goodie.
