I was 18 in 1985 when the Spirit moved me to write this song about Heaven in my reflection of what the Bible says about that everlasting paradise but also of my sense of assurance that Jesus -- the One who miraculously healed my eyes as well as once raised me from near-death upon mending my broken spirit -- is always with me and will receive me there one day with open arms for persevering and making good of the life that He has given me.

I wrote the lyrics in careful consideration of what the Bible says about Heaven. In particular, I drew from the following four verses:

"Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, 'Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.'" Then He who sat on the throne said, 'Behold, I make all things new.' And He said to me, 'Write, for these words are true and faithful.”" - Revelation 21:1-5

"And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever." - Revelation 22:1-5

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." - John 3:16

"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.” - Revelation 2:7

The Bible elsewhere challenges our imaginations even more as to what Heaven is like. Yet, although what we do know is already difficult to fathom, what we will not know until we enter God's Kingdom in eternity is beyond our human comprehension. I, however, well understand and most appreciate what Revelation 21:4 specifically says: "And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain..." Truly, that alone is going to be Heaven to me where such suffering has no place.

I pray that this song of my faith would inspire you to overcome in your life with the precious Savior who longs for us to join Him in paradise.

Recording and Revised Lyrics: 2021
Lead & Backup Vocals: Jessie Morgan

Lyrics:

~Verse 1~
When Jesus comes like a thief in the night,
With Him I’ll go as would a bride.
Left behind will be all my sorrows. My suf(fe)ring. My empty grave.
Those things of death will pass away.

~Verse 2~
Through Heaven’s gate, I will enter His home.
The place of dreams. Real to the soul.
Through the street flow life-giving waters. The river from where He reigns
Comes from the place I’ll see His face

~Chorus 1~
Where I’ll stand at His throne with the angels.
I’ll see the wings of His angels.

I’ll be there. Paradise eternal to share.
I’ll be there with the angels.

~Verse 3~
In Heav(en) above, at the feet of the Son,
No shadow falls. No day is done.
There I’ll go to worship my Savior who touched me so I could see
To find that place He made for me.

~Verse 4~
For loving Him and for walking His way,
Upon my brow, He’ll see His name.
All things new, the tree will be standing and bearing near where I’ll be.
There will be perfect harmony

~Chorus 2~
Where I’ll sing at His throne with the angels.
I’ll sing the psalms of His angels.

I’ll be there. Paradise eternal to share.
I’ll be there with the angels.

{Repeat Last Half of Chorus 2}
