Story behind the song
The basic lyric idea came from a poem by Stacy Martin. I liked her imagery so I edited it and added lines to put it in lyric form. The music came quite easily.

Lyrics inspired by a poem by Stacy Martin
I saw Jesus walking through the gates of pearl and gold
Saying to his Father, "It's time for me to go."
I saw Jesus hanging with thorns that crowned his head
On a cross that He had carried when He looked at me and said
Remember how I died for you
Remember why you're here
You were born and raised in Me
To make my message clear
Keep Me always in your heart
And keep Me in your life
And if you remember anything
Remember how I died!
I saw Jesus rising in His glory shining bright
Returning to the Father with the angels by his side
I saw Jesus walking in the heavens on that day
Looking down upon His people with compassion He would say
Remember how I died for you
Remember why you're here
You were born and raised in Me
To make my message clear
Keep Me always in your heart
And keep Me in your life
And if you remember anything
Remember I'm alive!
And I will come again to receive You
Faithful to the end, I'll bring you home
"Remember how I died for you
Remember why you're here
You were born and raised in Me
To make my message clear
Keep Me always in your heart
And keep Me in your life
And if you remember anything
Remember I'm alive
I am alive!
