Heaven Is The Hope

Heaven Is The Hope - Matthew West

We are surrounded

By a world that's not our home

We are grounded

Until it comes our time to go

And our souls are aching

With a void that won't be fill

Till we see our mansion

High up on the hill

All the tear stained pages

That fill the stories of our lifes

Will be erased when

Love lifts up our tired eyes

And we see jesus

For the first time face to face

All the pain will fall

A million miles away

'Cause heaven is the hope that we hold on to

Heaven is the promise for me and for you

That all we really are is passing through

To something better

Weeping may last all through the night

But joy is gonna come with a morning light

Heaven is the place with you and I

Are gonna live forever

Oh heaven is the hope

Heaven is the hope

Heaven is the hope we hold on to

Oh I'm so excited

And now my heart can hardly wait

To see all the loved ones

That we have lost along the way

And every sickness

Will be healed once and for all

Every burden we have bear

Will finally fall

'Cause heaven is the hope that we hold on to

Heaven is the promise for me and for you

That all we really are is passing through

To something better

Weeping may last all through the night

But joy is gonna come with a morning light

Heaven is the place with you and I

Are gonna live forever

Oh heaven is the hope

Heaven is the hope

Heaven is the hope we hold on to

There'll be no more pain

And no more sorrow

It could be today

It could be tomorrow

But until he call us home

Heaven is our hope

Heaven is the hope that we hold on to

Heaven is the promise for me and for you

That all we really are is passing through

To something better

Weeping may last all through the night

But joy is gonna come with a morning light

And heaven is the place with you and I

Are gonna live forever

Heaven is the hope

Heaven is the hope

Heaven is the hope we hold on to

So we'll keep waiting

Just a few more weary days

We'll keep watching

For those clouds to roll away

And we'll keep walking

Down this straight and narrow road

Telling all the world

That heaven is the hope

Just telling all the world

That heaven is the hope

Telling all the world

That heaven is the hope

There'll be no more pain and no more sorrow

It could be today it could be tomorrow

But until he call us home

Heaven is our hope

My heart can't wait till that day comes

I'm gonna hear him say

Child well done

Until it comes my time to go

Heaven is the hope
