Words and Music by Brian R. Riecke

I am going to prepare a place for you

My hands will build it strong

And when I’m done I’ll come and take you there

To a place of beauty, strength and song

I was with you when your journeying began

Full of promise, full of hope.

I have traveled with you through good times and bad

Whispering through your life so you would know…

I am going to prepare a place for you

My hands will build it strong

And when I’m done I’ll come and take you there

To a place of beauty, strength and song

The blessings of your life show me how you’ve grown.

And though you fear to let it go;

Your friends and family reflect your love.

Everyone will look at them and know

I am going to prepare a place for you

My hands will build it strong

And when I’m done I’ll come and take you there

To a place of beauty, strength and song

You have done what I have asked of you

You have followed where I’ve led

Now as your journey nears its end

Remember what I’ve said…

I am going to prepare a place for you

My hands will build it strong

And when I’m done I’ll come and take you there

To live your new life long.
