lyrics
Don’t Cry for Me
When my life is over here; When this life is done,
I’ll get to see Jesus; I’ll be with the Son.
So, don’t you dare cry for me; No, don’t shed a tear.
‘Cause I’ll be with Jesus when I am not here.
You know I’ve been weary. Yeah, you know I’ve been weak
But dancing with Jesus, I’m light on my feet.
So, don’t you dare cry for me; You’ve gotta be strong
‘Cause I’ll be with Jesus. That’s where I belong.
I know that you’ll miss me. Yeah, I knew that you would.
But I stayed here with you as long as I could.
So, don’t you dare cry for me; No, don’t shed a tear.
‘Cause I’ll be with Jesus when I am not here.
So, if you don’t see me here, you know where I’ll be…
I’ll be with my Jesus for eternity.
So, don’t you dare cry for me. You’ve gotta be strong.
‘Cause I’ll be with Jesus; right where I belong.
So, don’t you dare cry for me; No, don’t shed a tear.
‘Cause I’ll be with Jesus when I am not here.
