From 1 John 1:5:  “This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him there is no darkness at all.”

On way to Heaven

With each passing day

Envisioning New Earth

Jesus leads our way

 

Righteousness proceeds

Praises filled with joy

All marching to Zion

Jesus leads convoy

 

Blessed harvest waits

Feast upon light’s grace

Leaving sin’s darkened street

Jesus takes our place

 

Chains of bondage break

Freedom’s bells now ring

Reaching heavenly peace

Jesus always King

 

On way to Heaven

Mercy’s opened door

Forgiving voice of love

Jesus evermore!
