A PLACE

A PLACE
 There is a place not far away, a place I long to be.
A place beyond the rainbow, out past the rippling sea.
A place where all the stars will dance like diamonds in the sky.
And the birds will sing so sweetly, a heavenly lullaby.
A place where sorrow is no more, and pain can not be found.
A tear is something that's never seen, and laughter's a welcomed sound.
A place where love will fall like rain to touch all the people there.
Where hatred and war are not allowed, we'll live without a care.
With my eyes I cannot see this place I'm longing for.
But in my heart I know it's there, it’s a promise from the Lord.
A promise that one day He’ll come and take us all away.
To live and reign with Him forever, in that place not far away.
