A Song a Day: Day 3 'Until Then"

Helllooo there ladies and gentlemen. Today's featured song is called "Until Then". It's about the expectation of getting to heaven and what to do while we are still here. I wrote this in high school, and found myself daydreaming about what heaven would be like, trying to think of the most magnificent things I could imagine. I could spend hours on this subject, and then I thought to myself, well what do I do until I get there? Surely, I can't spend all my days just sitting around, there is this process of sanctification going on and a harvest we are called to work alongside Jesus to bring in. Enjoy! ~~Jackie~~


You’ll call your children by name
Inviting them into the mansions that you’ve made
While walking through the streets of gold
Seeing the lamb lay down with the lion
It is then I’ll see your truths unfold, but

Chorus: Until then I will follow your word
             And your voice in my life will be heard
            Until then, I will cling to Your promise
            And share that blessed assurance of everlasting life

I count the days till I see You face to face
And I get to ever sing your praise
No more heavy burdens
No more tears or pain
Just basking in your presence
Magnify your name

Chorus

It’s gonna be a glorious day
But I don’t have to wait till then
To sing you praise, to see Your face
For You’ve given me Your Spirit
Poured out your love and grace
Halleluiah, Halleluiah

Outro: Until then I cling to your promise
             I cling to your promise
            Share that blessed assurance
            Of everlasting life
