The Reality of Heaven

Words can't describe this
My heart can't contain this
How the one with no shame
Could make me blameless
How the one with no blemish
Could make me stainless

How the one who is Holy
Could take my pain and
Bear my burden when He hung
On the wooden tree
Jesus, Son of God tortured for me

My guilt left behind
Because the day Love deceased
Was the day Love awakened
Inside of me

I've got this joy unspeakable
That won't go away
I remember that song and
What they used to say
Just enough strength to get
Through the day
Because I'm counting on God
And the way He has made

Well, I've never felt a greater joy
I've never experienced a greater love
All of heaven making noise
Singing songs from above

Choirs of angels echo His praise
Eternity's song until End of Age
The preachers proclaim
And the poets write
The prophets exalt through
New vision's sight

As we catch a glimpse of Christ
A new reality from death to life
A new reality from lost to found
All the earth in unified sound
And when the praises go up
The blessings come down

Well what better blessing
Than Himself
The One who holds the keys to hell
A story we'll not just tell through
Bibles on a shelf
But He'll write it on these hearts
And bodies composed of cells

We'll be a "third testamental" church
As we proclaim of Bethlehem's Birth
Come to die but there's no hearse
There's no stone the grave's alone
I'll shout it out from microphone
Depression ceases, anxiety overthrown
Because the Crucified Lamb
Now sits on heaven's throne

Heaven is for real
But I don't need a movie to tell me
Heaven is for real
And yet while it's a mystery
Heaven is for real
And I sense His Presence inside of me

Jesus is heaven and heaven is He
And we act in accordance whenever we
Love the unloveable
Touch the untouchable
Forgive the unforgivable
And pardon the unpardonable

Spirit's life in broken clay pots unleashed
No longer I who live but Christ in me
And we show the world through our good deeds
That heaven resides in our grace filled communities

God awaken me to this new reality
As grace restores that which experienced fatality
As Spirit's breath comes to life inside of these
Lungs and tongues with praises sung
As we shout the song of the redeemed

Heaven is for real
And it's here and now
As all God's people take a bow
And lift up Resurrected Son
A new reality here on earth begun
Shining fierce as morning sun
Reality transformed because
Heaven's come
