"Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will live in the house of the Lord forever."
Psalm 23:6
"Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth."
Colossians 3:2
We are called to be "heaven minded" and focused on eternity. This song is an outpouring of anticipation for that day when we finally see the face of our Heavenly Father. "I can't wait to be with you Lord forever."
lyrics
(Verse 1)
Lord when I think about your goodness,
I just get up in my own zone,
Peace is what I feel to know,
That my sin's atoned,
Grace is what you're giving me,
When I'm all alone,
Feelin' nothin' but your presence,
That's where I be truly home,
Just thinkin' 'bout forever,
When I'm in a better place,
Surrounded by them angels,
And I'll get to see your face,
Lovin' every second of it,
'Cuz you'll say I ran the race,
Great as a good faithful servant,
And I kept the faith,
No more pain,
No more sorrow,
No more cloudy grays,
Only sunshine, rainbows, and golden pave,
No more doubt,
No more worries,
No more bad days,
Only true complete joy,
Ya givin' God praise,
Heaven minded,
Got Philippians 4:8,
That I'm applying,
In your peace,
That's where I'll stay,
Under the comfort of your wings,
Like the birds of prey,
Connected to my Lord,
Like the bones in your vertebrae.
(Chorus)
Jesus Christ you're The King that I love,
You're The King up above,
And you poured out you're blood,
Ya, Uh,
And I'mma follow you Lord forever,
I can't wait,
Ya, to be with you Lord forever.
(x2)
(Verse 2)
I should be dead,
I should be gone,
I should be out,
Or stuck in jail,
'Cuz I chose to take the wrong route,
I could be slangin' out the poison,
With the wrong crowd,
Stuck up in a maze,
Always lost like I'm in a cloud,
I couldn't see,
I was blind,
It had me want' to shout,
Hittin' rock bottom,
Got a brotha' filled with doubt,
Then I received G-O-D,
That's what its about,
John to the 3:16,
Go and check it out,
Nehemiah 9:17,
Got me feelin' stout,
God you're so gracious,
Forgiving and know just how,
This world works,
I can see the blood from ya brow,
You died for the world,
Even though it beat you down,
That's crazy love,
Unconditional,
You got me wowed,
Through my lyrics,
I give praise to you right now,
Before I met you,
I was makin' such a whack sound,
Spittin' on your crown,
I was lost,
Now I've been found.
