In your hand


I am nothing (Job 40:4; NLT).

I’m nothing,
Yet you hold me in your hand,

Until I reach my home:
Your Promised Land.

There, we will sing and dance
As one, in love,

Safe from all earthly pain:
In heaven above.

God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away (Revelation 21:4; KJV).
