I Will Be Looking For You


I Will Be Looking For You
I'll be Looking for You
When the trumpet shall sound
and I rise from the ground...
as the Heavens depart like a scroll;
When I sail through the air
I'll remember this prayer;
For I'm praying today for your soul.

I'll be looking for you
when life's journey is through
and all burdens have vanished away.
Now, I'm asking the Lord
and my whole heart is poured
in this prayer I am praying today.

Will you meet me someday
in that Home far away...
with no heartache nor sorrow to bear?
In those Mansions Sublime...
May yours be next to mine.
If we never meet here...meet me there.

If we only had eyes to see and ears to hear and wits to understand, we would know that the Kingdom of God in the sense of holiness, goodness, beauty is as close as breathing and is crying out to born both within ourselves and within the world; we would know that the Kingdom of God is what we all of us hunger for above all other things even when we don’t know its name or realize that it’s what we’re starving to death for. The Kingdom of God is where our best dreams come from and our truest prayers. We glimpse it at those moments when we find ourselves being better than we are and wiser than we know. We catch sight of it when at some moment of crisis a strength seems to come to us that is greater than our own strength. The Kingdom of God is where we belong. It is home, and whether we realize it or not, I think we are all of us homesick for it.”
