Hymn Of Heaven
Eternal Hope: Embracing Heaven's Anthem of Redemption
Lyrics
How I long to breathe the air of Heaven
Expressing a deep desire to experience the atmosphere of Heaven.
Where pain is gone and mercy fills the streets
Describing a heavenly realm where suffering is absent, and compassion pervades.
To look upon the One who bled to save me
Expressing the longing to see the Savior who sacrificed himself for the speaker's salvation.
And walk with Him for all eternity
Desiring to walk alongside the Savior for all of eternity.
There will be a day when all will bow before Him
Anticipating a future day when everyone will bow before the divine.
There will be a day when death will be no more
Imagining a day when death will no longer exist.
Standing face to face with He who died and rose again
Envisioning standing in the presence of the resurrected Savior who conquered death.
Holy, holy is the Lord
Acknowledging the holiness of the Lord.
And every prayer, we prayed in desperation
Reflecting on prayers offered in moments of desperation.
The songs of faith, we sang through doubt and fear
Recognizing the songs of faith sung amidst doubt and fear.
In the end, we'll see that it was worth it
Believing that, in the end, the struggles and faith will be justified.
When He returns to wipe away our tears, oh
Anticipating joy when the Savior returns to wipe away tears.
There will be a day when all will bow before Him
Reiterating the future scene where all will bow before the divine.
There will be a day when death will be no more
Emphasizing the eventual absence of death.
Standing face to face with He who died and rose again
Envisioning standing face to face with the resurrected Savior.
Holy, holy is the Lord
Affirming the holiness of the Lord.
And on that day, we join the resurrection
Describing a day of joining the resurrection and standing with the heroes of faith.
And stand beside the heroes of the faith
Emphasizing unity with past generations in praising the Lamb who was slain.
With one voice, a thousand generations
Imagining a collective voice of a thousand generations singing praise.
Sing, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain"
Singing a declaration of the worthiness of the Lamb who was sacrificed.
And on that day, we join the resurrection
Repeating the theme of joining the resurrection and standing with heroes of faith.
And stand beside the heroes of the faith
Reiterating standing with past generations and praising the slain Lamb.
With one voice, a thousand generations
Repeating the idea of a united voice across generations in praise.
Sing, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain"
Reaffirming the worthiness of the Lamb who was sacrificed.
Forever He shall reign
Declaring the eternal reign of the Savior.
So let it be today we shout the hymn of Heaven
Calling for the present day to resound with the hymn of Heaven.
With angels and the saints, we raise a mighty roar
Imagining a powerful chorus with angels and saints, raising a mighty roar.
Glory to our God who gave us life beyond the grave
Giving glory to God for granting life beyond the grave.
Holy, holy is the Lord
Affirming the holiness of the Lord.
So let it be today we shout the hymn of Heaven
Reiterating the call for the present day to resound with the hymn of Heaven.
With angels and the saints, we raise a mighty roar
Envisioning a collective praise with angels and saints, raising a mighty roar.
Glory to our God who gave us life beyond the grave
Giving glory to God for life beyond the grave.
Holy, holy is the Lord
Affirming the holiness of the Lord.
Holy, holy is the Lord
Repeating the declaration of the holiness of the Lord.

Reiterating the declaration of the holiness of the Lord.
