Verse
A window opened in the sky
The sun began to shine.
I walked across a rainbow bridge
Toward a welcome smile.
I was greeted with a handshake.
I was welcomed aboard
Like a member of the family
In the house of the lord.
The angels stood and clapped their hands
And shouted play some more.
Sing another song for us like
Knocking on Heaven’s Door.
The angels stood and clapped their hands
And shouted out- encore!
Encore in the House of the Lord
Ain’t over when the curtain falls
Sometimes you play some more.
Sometimes when you’re good enough
You hear the call;- encore.
It’s not over till it’s over
And only then you’ll know
If you’ve been assigned to the cast
For the next big show.
Chorus
Bridge
Keep playing your piano.
Keep singing your songs.
Keep bringing happiness
We’ll see you later on
Repeat Chorus
