Peace settled over the land
as little ones took the hand
of parents that guided with love
and no one felt the need to shove,
or push, or yell, or fight,
as day turned into night.
Food was plentiful and good.
We all ate only what we should.
The only tears were those of joy
there were no orphan girls or boys.
There was no prejudice or hate
not one soul alive would hesitate
to invite another into their home
and all are free where ever they roam
There was no sickness, no pain,
no famines or flooding rains,
no ghettos or shanty towns
no hurricanes to knock things down.
everyone slept on silken sheets
and the purest gold paved the streets.
Lions lay beside the lambs at rest
as song birds trilled with such zest
that the air was filled with song
every voice was sweet and strong.
Such a place will soon appear
as Christ's return is drawing near.
Until then, it is my fervent prayer
that on that day, I'll see you there!

Streets of Heaven
Streets of Heaven
Someday when we are in heaven,
Oh so happy and so bright.
There'll be perfect joy and beauty,
In His ever lasting light.
Oh, yes, it will be worth it,
The grief and sorrow past.
We'll be at peace forever,
When we're home with Him at last.
He will come Himself to meet us,
When at heaven's gate we stand.
He will smile and say, "Come In,"
And we'll take His loving hand.
So when life is not so easy,
And we think we've had our fill;
Just remember Jesus loves us,
And trust the Father's will.
There is work for us to do here,
So we must not idly stand.
For when our work is over,
We shall rest in the promised land.
Oh, yes, it will be worth it;
When He gently calls us home.
Oh the joy of that sweet meeting,
When on heaven's streets we roam.
