Heaven is my home - its name,
“The Lord is there.”
It is a new place, not like the old,
a changed place for changed people.
We live in hope to see that day,
the journey home,
to bow before God’s throne
and worship endlessly.
For now we are frustrated,
our sins stumble us and we are accused
but we always have an answer
to the accuser’s stingless cries:
Immanuel has washed us clean.
And when he comes once more
he will ride a horse of blazing white
a conqueror in victory.
We will be changed in a flash,
a moment, sublimate to a body
spiritual and new. Our scars of
faith will be emblems of glory,
echoes of a cross of peace.
We will rise on gracious wings to
an undiscovered country and leave
this empty tomb, this passing world.
But for now we harvest,
the pain and tears must flow
as lost souls must be found
and angels hope to celebrate
each prodigal come home.
May we love with abandon
and follow the ways of grace
all our days on this earth,
and live a life of prayer...
for Heaven is my home - its name,
“The Lord is there.”
