Lyrics
Wanda?s Song
Written and Composed by Rodney B. Miles Sr.
And it?s one & two & three and we?re gone
You were right there beside me and now I?m alone
And although my heart breaks I?ll carry on
And I?ll see you someday, when God calls me home-
to ?Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I am found
I was blind and now I see,? I see, I see
That it?s one & two & three and we?re gone
?Like the chaff in the wind, we are tossed and we?re blown?
But God?s always with us, we are never alone.
And I?ll see you again, and we?ll kneel by the thrown
?When I get to Heaven, I?m gonna jump and shout
Nobody there is going to turn me out.
My Mother will be waiting and my Father too
And we?ll walk around Heaven,? just me and you, me and you
Oh God, it?s one & two & three and we?re gone.
