Look Up
For Your Redemption Draws Nigh ~
As I look at the world we now live in,
It's fulfilling all the prophecies of time past.
We hear of the wars and commotions,
Some wondering, just how long will it last?
We see the destruction of hurricanes,
Of floods, and of earthquakes worldwide,
There seems to be no end to the tragedies,
That is suffered by so many on all sides.
The blatant disregard for the Scriptures
Man's desire to do things his own way,
God's laws are now considered unacceptable
It's something we see more of each day.
Although things around us seem hopeless
Something greater is still yet to be,
Along with the promise of God's judgment
There'll be a day when the saved are set free.
No man knows the day or the hour
When the Lord raptures those ready from the
earth,
Even though we face tribulations in this
lifetime
When we see Him, we will realize its worth.
We'll be present with the One we so longed for
Finally seeing our dear Savior face to face,
All the hurts and the sorrows will be forgotten
And we'll now dwell in that heavenly place.
No longer will we endure all of life's struggles
The suffering and the tears will be no more,
Unspeakable joy and rest will abide there
Nothing compares to what His Own have in store!
So, as you see the end times now unfolding
The world growing darker as each day goes by,
Prepare your hearts and remember what He told us
Look Up! For your redemption draws nigh!

In my Fathers house
are many mansions;
if it
were not so I would have told you.
I go to prepare a place
for you.
And if I go and
prepare a place for you
I will come again, and
receive you unto myself,
that where I am you may be also.
-John 14:2-3
