Eternity

(album: Horseshoes & Handgrenades - 2010)

[Verse 1]
All that is behind me, this mess of life
Where out of nothing came a beautiful design [1 Corinthians 1:26-28]
Know that I've had but a taste of a deathless wine [Matthew 26:27-28]
So I give up the flame to the hands beside
And I'll be waiting

[Chorus]
Where the desert is covered in roses [Isaiah 35:1]
Where I can outshine the stars in a single day [1 John 2:25]
The face of God isn't hidden [Revelation 22:4]
When I wake into eternity [1 Corinthians 15:51-53]

Where the shadows are never discovered [Revelation 22:5]
Tears are nothing more than a memory [Revelation 21:4]
Death isn't alive any longer [Revelation 20:14]
When I wake into eternity

[Verse 2]
Now I know I see it in your eyes
You knew at some point that we'd have to say goodbye [Hebrews 9:27]
I looked for this moment for all my life
To be caught away in the arms of God [Philippians 1:23]
And I'll be waiting

[Bridge]
When I awake I'll see Your face
When I awake I'll see Your face [Revelation 22:4]
