Forever is a Long, Long Time

When I was younger I use to think that maybe heaven didn't sound like too much fun. I thought it would be exciting at first to see everyone else and to actually see God. I thought it would be interesting to talk about all those things I've wanted to ask God. I like to sing, I like to eat, so those things sounded okay too. But I always had this question of what after all that, won't we get bored at some point? I couldn't imagine being content with that. I had the Judgement House image of everyone being in white and walking around quietly or singing for hours and hours


Of course over the years, I 've had opportunity to study Revelations a couple times and while it certainly maintains the mystery, I do know God still has a purpose for us and we won't just be drifting around. As I grow as a Christian though, I long more and more just to be with God so even if that were it, that would be more than enough. I'm lucky to get to sing with the church praise band and over the years it's really made me look forward to being able to sing my praise directly to God and tell Him face to face how much I love Him and how magnificent He is. Hillsong's Revelation Song really moves me right now. It's . Here are the lyrics:

Worthy is the,
Lamb who was slain
Holy, Holy, is He
Sing a new song, to Him who sits on
Heaven's Mercy Seat

Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And I will adore You…!

Clothed in rainbows, of living color

Flashes of lightning, rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor, strength and
Glory and power be
To You the Only Wise King

Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And – I - will - adore You!

Filled with wonder,
Awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your Name
Jesus, Your Name is Power
Breath, and Living Water
Such a marvelous mystery

Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And – I - will - adore You!

Holy, Holy, Holy

Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come,
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And – I - will - adore YOU…


Come up lift up His Name

To the King of Kings…
We will adore YOU Lord…
King of heaven and earth
King Jesus, King Jesus
Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya!
Majesty, awestruck Honor
And Power and Strength and Dominion
To You Lord,
To the King, to King
To the King of Glory
