The First Face I Want to See

Before the streets of gold and the joyful reunions, there’s one moment he dreams about most—seeing Jesus face to face. “The First Face I Want to See” is an original Christian country-gospel song about a father’s faith, a son’s memories, and the hope of finally meeting the Savior who carried him through life. It begins with a boy sitting beside his daddy beneath the evening sky, asking who he’ll look for when he gets to heaven. Years later, after prayers in waiting rooms and nights when life didn’t make sense, that boy understands his father’s answer. Now Daddy’s porch chair sits empty, but his words still bring comfort. There’s a long-awaited hug to look forward to—and a lifetime of gratitude to bring before Jesus. “There are arms I’ve missed and voices That still mean the world to me, But Jesus, after all You’ve done, Yours is the first face I want to see.” With warm acoustic guitar and heartfelt country storytelling, this song celebrates the hope we have in the risen Christ. It isn’t about earning our way to heaven. It’s about trusting His grace and looking forward to thanking Him in person. And until that homecoming, there is still a life to live with faith, kindness, and love. May this song encourage your heart, bring a precious memory to mind, and remind you of the hope that carries us through the years.
