Tell me Jesus loves me
That He'll wash my sins away
Tell me Heaven's waiting
And that I'll see you there someday

I met her late somewhere on nowhere street
How she got there, she don't know
In her pursuit of happiness she'd lost her way
And gone as far as she could go

We talked a while
And then the tears began to fall
What she wanted
Was to make sense of it all
She looked at me and she said...

Tell me Jesus loves me
That He'll wash my sins away
Tell me Heaven's waiting
And that I'll see you there someday

But now I sit here in a chair beside her bed
And hold her withered hand in mine
Past mistakes can sneak back up on you
And, Lord, they'll steal away your life

I close my eyes
And fight the tears and say a prayer
I look toward Heaven
'Cause I know she made it there
And I smile at her and I say...

Tell me Jesus loves me
That He'll wash my sins away
Tell me Heaven's waiting
And that I'll see you there someday

Today she found
What she'd been looking for
When like a bird
She flew through Heaven's doors
And I still hear her say to me, she said...
(Tell me He loves me)
I can hear her say to Jesus
Oh, I know now that He loves me
(He'll wash my sins away)
And I know that He washed my sins away, and...
(Tell me He loves me)
Oh, I can hear Him telling me
That heaven is waiting
(I'll see you there someday)
And I'm gonna see you there
Hey, I'll see you there someday

(Tell me He loves me)
(Tell me Jesus loves me)
(He'll wash my sins away)
And I know He washed
I know He washed my sins away
(Tell me He loves me)
(Tell me Heaven's waiting)
(I'll see you there someday)
And I'll see you there
And I'll see you there someday

(Tell me He loves me)
(Tell me Jesus loves me)
(He'll wash my sins away)
I know, I know that Jesus loves me
Yes, He does, yeah
(Tell me He loves me)
(Tell me Heaven's waiting)
Hey...
(I'll see you there someday)
Ah, yeah
She woke up somewhere on Heaven's streets
She's gone as far as she could go
