The Highest Privilege

In this place of highest privilege,
Where by our faith we stand,
We look forward by his grace with joy
To being all He planned. 

And though there will be testings,
Or problems great and small,
We know He's working for our good,
So in His Name we stand tall.

Problems come and problems go
That's what life is all about.
But one day there'll be gone for good,
And we'll sing and praise and shout.

Then one day He will call us
To come home and be with Him.
We will lay down all our burdens,
Leave this world of hate and sin.

As we stand at heaven's portals,
And the gates are open wide,
What a wonderful reunion
With those we've long had said 'goodbye'.

God Bless

No more parting, tears or sickness
No more pain or lonely days,
Just one endless day of glory
Just one endless day of praise.
