F#
We are surrounded,
BF#
By a world that's not our home.
C#
We are grounded,
BC#
Until it comes our time to go.
Ebm
And our souls are aching
BF#
With a void that won't be filled.
C#
'Till we see our mansion,
BF#
High up on the hill.
VERSE:
F#
All the tear-stained pages,
BF#
That fill the stories of our lives,
C#
Will be erased when,
BC#
Love lifts up our tired eyes.
Ebm
And we see Jesus
BF#
For the first time face to face
C#
All the pain will fall
BF#
A million miles away.
CHORUS:
Ebm
'Cause Heaven is the Hope that we hold on to.
B
Heaven is the Promise for me and for you
F#
That all we really are is passing through
C#
To something better.
Ebm
Weeping may last all through the night,
B
But Joy is gonna come with the Morning Light.

And Heaven is the place where you and I
C#
Are gonna live forever.

It will be healed once and for all.

Will finally fall.
