I don't know how  But I know I'll make it over   Don't know when  But he said he'll bring me through  Not yet there but I can see my destination  Ernest prayer is to be right here with you    But in the meantime   I'll keep on loving  In the meantime  I'm gonna keep on loving you   In the meantime   On this side of heaven   In the meantime  I'm gonna keep on loving you  Love me forever   I just don't want to be lonely     You taught me how  How to love all my brothers  And you given me   A certain job that I must do  Won't be long until that day of celebration  Sing my song   A song of joy when I'm with you    But in the meantime   I'll keep on loving  In the meantime  I'm gonna keep on loving you   In the meantime   On this side of heaven   In the meantime  I'm gonna keep on loving you  Love me forever   I just don't want to be lonely
