Until Then

I've had a fabulous week and am praising the Lord for the Christian fellowship of sweet young ladies this week! I always think of Christian fellowship as a little taste of what we'll experience in heaven.
Below is a hymn that I heard on BBN radio today and just thought I'd post the words on this beautiful Lord's day.


Until Then

My heart can sing when I pause to remember
A heartache here is but a stepping stone
Along a trail that's winding always upward,
This troubled world is not my final home.

The things of earth will dim and lose their value
If we recall they're borrowed for awhile;
And things of earth that cause the heart to tremble,
Remembered there will only bring a smile.

This weary world with all its toil and struggle
May take its toll of misery and strife;
The soul of man is like a waiting falcon;
When it's released, it's destined for the skies.

But until then my heart will go on singing,
Until then with joy I'll carry on,
Until the day my eyes behold the city,
Until the day God calls me home.

-Lyrics and Composer: Stuart Hamblen, 1958
