All Things Made New

One day no eye will tear and cry
or heaving hearts in mourning sigh

One day the sea will lap no shore
and this earth will be no more

One day green will salve and heal
as the Lamb's servants wear his seal

One day there will be no night
for God himself will be the light

One day the redeemed will see Jesus face-to-face
that day pain itself will have no place.

Inspired by the form of J Wilbur Chapman's famous hymn.
