Why not stop and take a moment
  Just to think what we'll behold
When we all go Home to Heaven
  Earthly beauty times ten fold!
Picture highest snow-capped mountain
  Eagle soaring high and free
Valleys full of richest fragrance
  Sky as far as eye can see!
Picture canyon's rocky faces
  Water rushing down below
Vast expanse of earthly desert
  Cooling winds begin to blow!
Picture ocean's rippling water
  Salty waves upon the sand
Islands far beyond the breakers
  Skies horizon meets the land!
Picture vast expanse of night sky
  Million stars all shining bright
Watch a yearling take it's first steps
  Baby bird just taking flight!
Picture rich and greenest pasture
  Brook meandering as it wills
Storm clouds gathering in the distance
  Lightning dances in the hills!
Picture all this times ten million
  Then in Heaven you will find
That My God has kept His best for
  His Own Heavenly Design!
Have you ever stopped to think if God put so much care in the beauty of His earthly creations, what more does He have in store for us in His Own Heavenly design?

My God went there, prepared a Home
A mansion in the sky
What glory and splendor we'll behold
The very day we die!
We'll all rise up when trumpet sounds
To take Our Saviour's Hand
He'll guide us Home right through those clouds
To Home in Beulah Land!
We'll stop in awe at massive gates
Huge pearls swing open wide
That's but the entrance to our Home
Go on now, step inside!
Your mouth will drop right when you see
The sights of Glory Land
When beauty melds with Heaven's sound
Of Angels in His band!
Take in the sights, soak up the sounds
And stroll down streets of gold
But watch real close 'cause soon you'll see
Your loved ones there to hold!
Now grab their hands and don't lose pace
There's so much more to see
You've yet to meet Him face to face
  My Lord, The Prince of Peace!
These words can't even start to show
What glory that will be
That moment when those trumpets sound
From Heaven's Jubilee!
Are you looking for that day? Are you prepared? What will you think when we finally hear Heaven's Jubilee?

You've gone on before me
   I'm feeling so down
Though one day in Heaven
   I'll see you around
We'll shout out with singing
   On Heaven's bright shore
With you in my arms
  Together once more!
We'll praise My Dear Saviour
   And look on His face
Together we'll thank Him
   For His love and grace
Our hearts will be mended
    Our sorrows all gone
With you right beside me
    All crying is done.
We'll walk through the Heavens
    On streets of pure gold
We'll have perfect bodies
   To hug and to hold.
We'll sit and just listen
   To Heavenly Band
We'll gather our crowns
   With Jesus we'll stand
We'll cross through that river
   Our mansions we'll see
To hold you forever
   What glory will be!
I now live each day for
   That moment just when
Those trumpets will sound
   And I'll see you again!!
When one of our loved ones goes to Heaven before us or before what we feel is "their time to go", so many times Christians get bitter at God with the pain of grief and loss.  Even though it hurts beyond words, we can rest in the thought that with the Gift of Salvation, we are only apart for a short time. Yes one day soon we will see our loved ones walking pain and sorrow free beyond those Heavenly gates of Glory! God has given me these words about this thought. I pray that you too can find some comfort in these words:

— The End —
