No power in the sky above or in the earth below – indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8:39; NLT).
1. On earth, Lord,
And beyond our death,
We live forever
In your love.
2. On earth, Lord,
And beyond our death,
We walk together
In your light.
3. On earth, Lord,
And beyond our death,
We rest united
In your peace,
4. For all are one
With you, dear Lord,
And all are precious
In your sight.
