This One's With Me
NewSong's 'This One's with Me' is a dreamlike narrative about a believer's arrival at heaven's gates, feeling unworthy and afraid in God's presence. Jesus intercedes, declaring the person is part of His family and the reason He died on Calvary. The song emphasizes salvation through Christ's sacrifice, the assurance of acceptance, and the joy of being welcomed into heaven. It reflects themes of grace, redemption, and the believer's secure place in God's family, inspired by the biblical promise of eternal life through Jesus.
I was dreaming about heaven
I was standing at the pearling gates
We all there
And I was so scared in the presence of One so great
I felt so worried and unworthy
I felt like running away
I bowed my head and I turn to go
Then I heard someone say
Father, this one's with me
Part of the family
One of the reasons I died
On Calvary
Father, Welcome him in
I paid the price for him
Father, Oh Father, this ones with me
I was dreaming about heaven
When I looked up the gates were opened wide
And in the distance, I saw Jesus
Our eyes met, and I began to cry
Angels rolled in their beauty,
Were there to show me the way
And all of heaven singing
When I heard his voice say
Father, this one's with me
Part of the family
One of the reasons I died
On Calvary
Father, Welcome him in
I paid the price for him
Father, Oh Father, this one's with me
Finally, we were there face to face
And he placed on me heaven's crown
I fell down on my knees
Laid my crown at his feet
Then he said, to me
Father, this one's with me
Part of the family
One of the reasons I died
On Calvary
Father, Welcome him in
I paid the price for him
Father, Oh Father, this one's with me.
