Heaven on earth


He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases. He redeems me from death and crowns me with love and tender mercies (Psalm 103:3-4; NLT). 

In heaven, you forgive us, Lord.
In heaven, Lord, you heal.
In heaven, you redeem us
After life and death’s ordeal.
Then, resurrected, loved, and crowned,
We’re one with you, in joy profound.

In life, you can forgive us, too.
In life, you heal, console.
In life, you can redeem us,
And your hands can make us whole.
Then, born again, we grasp your worth:
We’re one with you, in heaven on earth.

There is only one thing worth being concerned about (Luke 10:42: NLT). 

Everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ and become one with him (Philippians 3:8-9; NLT).
