Costly World

Take it all take it from me 
All that this world should be
It isnt anywhere to be seen
Not even in my wildest dream
I have searched far and wide 
To find a home on the other side
But this life has cost too much
The gates of heaven I'll never touch

Feelings of despair...Heaven is not achievable through our work; it is a gift from God through faith in Jesus. Jesus is the blood sacrifice that removes our sin and sets us right with God. Keep searching and keep writing.
