Pardoned, with sins forgiven,
I’ve caught a glimpse of heaven.
Love lights the way,
As I press onward each day.
No more alone to wander,
Heaven is waiting o’er yonder;
Where I shall go with Jesus to stay.
Trusting the Rock of Ages,
I fear no the storm that rages.
Sweetly I’ll sing—
Praises to my King.
I’ve made preparation;
I am a new creation.
In my heart the Glory-bells ring.
When I reach that tomorrow,
Free from all sorrow.
Jesus I’ll meet and sit at His feet,
Loved ones wait there in glory.
Singing the redemption story,
Anxious, my coming to greet.
