But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, Philippians 3:20
Earth is His footstool
Heaven, the place He abides
He is coming for us soon
Forever with Him, we will reside
On a white horse He will ride
Trumpet fare will resound
All we see His splendor
Abundant joy shall abound
Jesus secured our citizenship
His blood, the purchase price paid
Our passport is already stamped
Confirmation of itinerary is made
Why do we need a Savior
Is He only for the weak
Who should call Him Lord
Who wants to become meek
Blinded by effects of sin
Our comfort is our throne
Let Jesus save someone else
Foolish thinking to be left alone
Why should we be desperate
Why the urgency, why the fuss
Sin broke our relationship with God
Jesus redeemed it, for all of us
Our Savior is the hero we need
Jesus lovingly gave His life for all
Our chest is filled with thanks and hope
“You are Lord” our tongues will call
With joy we await your arrival
To be united with You face to face
Surrounded by our brothers and sisters
Forever with Jesus in our heavenly place
