There are streets of gold And rejoicing souls in that place And the Angels cry Holy day and night and hide their face And you and I will stand beside them someday soon And every fear we've held inside will be removed
There are blazing flames Can be quenched or tamed in His eyes And to look on Him The eyes of men would just go blind But you and I will gaze upon Him someday soon As tears of joy flood streets of gold we'll be made new
There is darkness here But the dawn grows nearer every day Soon the sun will rise Put an end to night and Christ will reign And you and I will run to Him and He will say I am your reward beloved child who walked by faith And we will enter in And freed from sin our souls will sing An eternal song Of the grace of God our matchless king And this world will be a faint and distant memory As we gaze upon and fall before our matchless king
But as heaven is closing in The world that were living in Is crying out loud, loud, loud And though we face trials now Carry your hope somehow Till heaven comes down, down
And Jesus, lead the way Jesus, lead the way You gotta lead me home
