This is my own tribute to Bob Dylan. Folk singers apparently don't have any problems with other folk singers borrowing their tunes and adding their own lyrics. Here's my version of "Forever Young".
Face to Face
May you meet the God of Heaven
May you hear His gentle call
May you step into His kingdom
In surrender may you fall
May you know yourself forgiven
May you receive His grace
As you stand before His presence
May you meet Him face to face
Face to face, face to face
May you meet Him face to face
May your walk with Him be precious
May your fellowship be sweet
May you listen as He talks to you
Each cherished time you meet
May the world become less pressing
May it be a paler place
As you’re seated in the heavenlies
May you meet Him face to face
Face to face, face to face
May you meet Him face to face
May your hands be always open
May your songs be full of joy
May your prayers demolish strongholds
As His weapons you employ
May you be a generous sower
May the lost find your embrace
And carrying your harvest home
May you meet Him face to face
Face to face, face to face
May you meet Him face to face
