~ Paradise ~


Do you happen to know what paradise is
Do you think it's a state of mind
Do you think there's a place here on earth
Do you think it would be easy to find?

To me paradise is what's waiting for us
Once we let loose of our earthly ties
We'll ascend to heaven on Gossamer wings
And we won't believe our eyes!

Love will be all around us
Our Savior will take us by the hand
He'll lead us down the path to Our Father
No more are we a mortal man.

We'll walk through the valley with Jesus
Our loved ones and friends we'll see
Joy and love is all we'll ever know
Our spirit, our soul, will be set free.

So have no fear when death approaches
There's so much love on the other side
The Lord and His Son are expecting us
It's tears of joy you'll find in my eyes!

"Arise, shine, for your light has come,
and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
See, darkness covers the earth
and thick darkness is over the peoples,
but the LORD rises upon you
and his glory appears over you.
Nations will come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
Isaiah 60:1-3
