Beyond stars past time's bounds Is a grand land where joy sounds At a great shining city by the sea Is God's promise for you and me. We have a Shangri-la in the sky And we will fly there by and by, We'll gather at those pearly-gates, Our paradise in Heaven waits. When our life of strife is through And Gabriel's trumpet is blew, Dearest love's passed on before Will be waiting at Heaven's door. What rapture that day will bring As harping angels merrily sing, Singing us home to golden shore To dwell in paradise evermore. Where waters of life freely flow On streets of gold we will stroll In Heaven's brilliance so sublime We shall rejoice for all time. Longing for home can overwhelm But trust The Savior at the helm, The salvation ship will sail for you, From prayer dreams come true. Paradise past the last star waits, Happy loved ones are at the gates We'll all join them sister and brother Nevermore to part from one another. In Heaven where the roses never fade Is our eternal home God has made In a land where we'll never grow old Waits a glorious paradise to behold. (c)Written by: Kenneth J.
