Heaven
HEAVEN
According to John in the Book of Revelation
Heaven will be a place beyond imagination
For those saved believers in Jesus Christ
It will greatly exceed any earthly paradise
We are told there will be huge pearly gates
Rubies and diamonds and gems so ornate
There we will walk on streets of pure gold
Mansions of such beauty as never foretold
Such wonderous beauty far as eye can see
Freely prepared for you and for me
We'll be reunited with loved ones and friends
The joy we will experience never ends
When we behold the Face of God
And walk where Angels have freely trod
We will sing praises in melodious song
Heaven is a place for which I long
The price to go has been fully paid
By Christ who in a borrowed tomb was laid
After His crucifixion and death on the Cross
Though many felt that all was lost
The ultimate sacrifice for us had been made
And on the third day Christ arose from the grave
He ascended to the Father in Heaven above
To receive us there because of His great love
Now eternity in Heaven is the gift of salvation
As described by John in Revelation
Without Christ as your Savior, you will surely fail
And your eternal destination will end in hell
