Revelation 21
4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
lyrics
Another night is gone
And nothing like the dawn seems to be breaking
You lie in bed and pray
Just aching for that final day of waking
Light years from here
Beyond all fear
Faith used to be so clear
Now it’s elusive as a cure
Nothing feels sure
When clouds look like a bruise
And early morning news inflames your spirit
The steep and winding way
Feels more remote each day and still you choose it
Bodies grow frail
And memories fail
Passions wax cold and stale
Ready your mind, your soul, your core
Here’s what’s in store
No more sorrow
No if onlys
Lonely nights will cease
No more weeping
Grieving wanes as
Pain gives way to peace
The world looks on and jeers
The fleeting gift of years can be misleading
Our pipe dreams run aground
And don’t always rebound, we stop believing
Vanities pall
As empires sprawl
Prey on the weak and small
Call to mind prophecies foretold
Rise and take hold
No more sorrow
No if onlys
Lonely nights will cease
No more weeping
Grieving wanes as
Pain gives way to peace
No more sorrow
No tomorrow cancels grace today
God will stroke each lifted face
And wipe each tear away
No more sorrow, solace calls
Lift your face as mercy falls
