Table in the Sky

Table in the Sky

(sung to the “tune” of “Spirit in the Sky” – lyrics below)

I’ve been blessed with a Table in the Sky
It is where I’ll go when I die.
All the people I love will be there
As I pull up my own comfy chair.

I’ve been blessed with a Table in the Sky
Though I’ve never been quite sure why
All I know is that when I go
I’ll reunite with the ones whom I loved so

First I lost my Papa, who went there alone
But I talked to him nightly.
Later Baba joined him, and Ruthie much too soon
But I could see them sitting just behind the moon.

Aunt Fay didn’t help cook, but she was out of pain
And glad to be with her parents
Annie finally joined her dear beloved Ruth
And was happy again, that’s the truth.

I’ve been blessed with a Table in the Sky
It’s what I think of when I want to cry.
They’re all waiting for us patiently
To come join our beloved family.

Naomi left too soon, but within weeks so did Dad
And the gin games began at the Table
He was free to play and eat with constant glee
Hs could devour all the sugar he was able.

And all the time, they looked down on us all
Sending love and guidance when we heard their call
We would miss them here, but they were always near
To help pick us up each time we’d fall.

I’ve been blessed with a Table in the Sky
It’s what I think of when I want to cry.
They’re all waiting for us patiently
To come join our beloved family.

Dave left one gin game to go to another
Mike later joined his other brothers
Milly out of pain joined her favorite mate
And the table would all celebrate

We all have a Table in the Sky
To turn to look toward when we die
To know that we will never be alone
For to die will be just like going home.

We will sit at our Table in the Sky
Joined by loved ones, so please don’t cry
Just remember that when you have to go
You’ll be welcomed by all who love you so.

We will miss you when you’re gone
But we know that you’ll live on
And we’ll know when our time is due
We’ll be right at that Table next to you.

We’ll be right at that Table next to you.
We’ll be together at that Table next to YOU.

Lyrics to the song “Spirit in the Sky” (by Norman Greenbaum)

When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that’s the best
When I lay me down to die
Goin’ up to the spirit in the sky
Goin’ up to the spirit in the sky
That’s where I’m gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that’s the best

Prepare yourself you know it’s a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He’s gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
Gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
That’s where you’re gonna go when you die
When you die and they lay you to rest
You’re gonna go to the place that’s the best

Never been a sinner I never sinned
I got a friend in Jesus
So you know that when I die
He’s gonna set me up with
The spirit in the sky
Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky
That’s where I’m gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I’m gonna go to the place that’s the best
Go to the place that’s the best
