A new heaven,
a new universe
where in God’s peace
all will be immersed.
New stars there’ll be,
new galaxies too
all of God’s glory
will shine through
A new earth,
pristine and fresh
no scars on it
from acts of the flesh.
A new city,
with streets of gold
gates of pearls
opening to His fold.
A new relationship,
between God and man
for all who’ve trusted
in salvation’s plan.
A new condition,
broken hearts no more
no sorrow, no death
only bliss galore.
A new Heaven,
a new earth too . . .
oh, won’t that be
a glorious view!
~~~~
“Nevertheless we,
according to his promise,
look for new heavens
and a new earth,
wherein dwelleth
righteousness.”
