He will wipe every tear from their eyes,
and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain
(Revelation 21:4; NLT).
1. May terrors fade, Lord,
Leaving only peace;
And bad dreams finish,
Leaving only good.
2. May darkness pass, Lord,
Leaving only light;
And evil perish,
Leaving only love.
3. May anguish end, Lord,
Leaving only hope;
And doubting wither,
Leaving only faith.
4. May weeping cease, Lord,
Leaving only joy;
And sickness vanish,
When we see your face.
Now we see in a mirror, dimly,
but then we will see face to face
(1 Corinthians 13:12; NRSV).
