There is a Place
A Journey to Eternal Peace: There is a Place by George Case
Lyrics
Troubles they come, they come every day
Troubles are a constant in life, occurring every day.
But the pain from this world will soon fade away
The pain experienced in this world is temporary and will soon diminish.
No troubles won't last, and it won't be long
Troubles won't endure, and their duration will be short-lived.
They're all gonna pass
All troubles will eventually pass.
See there is a place, a place I belong
There is a place where the speaker feels a sense of belonging.
Where there will be no more hate
In this place, there will be an absence of hatred.
Where there will be no more wrong
In this place, there will be no wrong or injustice.
A place not far away, where God's on His Throne
This place is not far away, and God reigns on His throne there.
It's gonna be my home
The speaker sees this place as their future home.
Yes There is a Place, and I'm going there
A reaffirmation that there is a place, and the speaker is destined for it.
It's far from this world, where no burdens I'll bear
This place is far removed from the troubles of the world.
In the sweet by and by, in the light of God's grace
In the future, in the light of God's grace, the speaker will be free from burdens.
I'll finally be home, Yes There is a Place

Friends and family will be, there waiting for me
Friends and family will be present, waiting for the speaker.
On God's golden shore, reunited we'll be
Reunion with loved ones on God's golden shore is envisioned.
And once again we'll embrace Yes together we'll be
Anticipation of embracing loved ones again in this place.
There is a Place
A repeated affirmation of the existence of a special place.
When at last I shall see, His face before me
Envisioning the moment when the speaker sees the face of God.
What words will I say, what words could there be
Contemplation of the words the speaker will express when in the presence of Jesus.
I'll just fall to my knees, When Jesus I'll see
An expression of humility, anticipating kneeling when encountering Jesus.
There is a Place

There is a Place, and I'm going there

Yea it's far from this world, where no burdens I'll bear

In the sweet by and by, in the light of God's grace
