Long for Heaven

Intro

Oh, this world is weary, heavy on my soul

Yeah, but I hold on... hold on

Verse

Wars raging loud, tearin' families apart

Hunger in the streets, stealin' every heart

Injustice risin', chains that won't let go

Sickness creepin' in, pain we all know

Children cryin' out in the dead of night

Leaders turn away, wrong feels so right

Broken promises, lies that cut so deep

We're drownin' in the flood, losin' precious sleep

Pre-chorus

But You see it all, You never turn Your face

Your arms are open wide, full of endless grace

Chorus

Oh, I long for heaven, where all will be well

No more sorrow, no more cryin', no more hell

Your faithfulness, it carries me through

Your love for us, it's breakin' through

Yeah, I long for heaven (heaven), where all will be well

Your love never fails, in You we dwell

Oh-oh, heaven, take me home

Where every wrong is finally gone

Verse

Storms keep comin', winds that shake the ground

Loneliness echoes, no peace to be found

Hearts get shattered, dreams turn to dust

Trust gets broken, in the ones we love most

But You're the anchor, steady in the rage

Your mercy rises like a never-endin' wave

Pre-chorus

You see the sufferin', You feel every ache

Your promise standin' firm, for heaven's sake

Chorus

Oh, I long for heaven, where all will be well

No more sorrow, no more cryin', no more hell

Your faithfulness, it carries me through

Your love for us, it's breakin' through

Yeah, I long for heaven (heaven), where all will be well

Your love never fails, in You we dwell

Oh-oh, heaven, take me home

Where every wrong is finally gone

Bridge

One day the King will come ridin' in

Every knee bow down, let the healin' begin

No more darkness, only glory light

Your faithful love wins the fight

(Oh yes), Your faithful love (love) wins the fight!

Chorus

Oh, I long for heaven, where all will be well

No more sorrow, no more cryin', no more hell

Your faithfulness, it carries me through

Your love for us, it's breakin' through

Yeah, I long for heaven (heaven), where all will be well

Your love never fails, in You we dwell

Oh-oh, heaven, take me home (take me home)

Where every wrong is finally gone

Outro

Yeah, all will be well... (all will be well)

In heaven... oh, heaven

Your love... forever
