How I long to breathe the air of heaven
Where pain is gone and mercy fills the streets
To look upon the One who bled to save me
And walk with Him for all eternity
There will be a day
When all will bow before Him
There will be a day
When death will be no more
Standing face to face
With He who died and rose again
Holy, Holy is the Lord
Every prayer we prayed in desperation
The songs of faith we sang through doubt and fear
But in the end we'll see that it was worth it
When He returns and wipes away our tears
There will be a day
When all will bow before Him
There will be a day
When death will be no more
Standing face to face
With He who died and rose again
Holy, Holy is the Lord
On that day we join the resurrection
And stand beside the heroes of the faith
With one voice a thousand generations
Sing worthy is the Lamb who was slain
On that day we join the resurrection
And stand beside the heroes of the faith
With one voice a thousand generations
Sing worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Forever He shall reign
So let it be today
We shout the hymn of heaven
With angels and the saints
We raise a mighty roar
Glory to our God who gave us life beyond the grave
Holy, holy is the Lord
So let it be today
We shout the hymn of heaven
With angels and the saints
We raise a mighty roar
Glory to our God who gave us life beyond the grave
Holy, holy is the Lord
Holy, holy is the Lord
Holy, holy is the Lord
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Join with angels and saints
Join with angels and saints
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy is the Lord
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy is the Lord
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy is the Lord
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy is the Lord
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
The song "Hymn Of Heaven" by Bethel Music is a powerful anthem that stirs the soul and lifts the spirit. It is a declaration of longing for the day when we will be in the presence of God in heaven, where pain will be no more and mercy will fill the streets. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the hope we have as believers, and the joy that awaits us in eternity.
One of the most inspiring aspects of this song is the reminder that there will be a day when all will bow before the Lord. This is a reference to the scripture verse in Philippians 2:10-11, which says, "that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." This verse speaks of the ultimate victory of Jesus over sin and death, and the day when every knee will bow before Him. The song captures this truth beautifully, reminding us of the future glory that awaits us in heaven.
The lyrics also speak of the prayers we have prayed in desperation and the songs of faith we have sung through doubt and fear. This is a reflection of the journey of faith that we all go through, facing trials and challenges along the way. But the song reminds us that in the end, it will all be worth it. When Jesus returns and wipes away our tears, we will see that every prayer and every song was not in vain. This is a powerful encouragement to continue pressing on in faith, knowing that our labor is not in vain in the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:58).
The song also emphasizes the resurrection and the hope we have in Christ. It speaks of standing beside the heroes of the faith and joining with angels and saints in singing praises to the Lamb who was slain. This is a reminder of the promise of resurrection and eternal life that we have in Jesus. The scripture verse in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 says, "For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." This verse speaks of the future resurrection and the hope of being reunited with loved ones who have gone before us. The song captures this hope and anticipation, reminding us that one day we will join the resurrection and stand in the presence of God.
Overall, "Hymn Of Heaven" is a powerful song that encourages and uplifts the listener. It reminds us of the future glory that awaits us in heaven, and the hope we have in Christ. The lyrics are filled with scripture references and truths that speak to the heart of the believer. It is a song of declaration and praise, declaring the holiness of the Lord and longing for the day when we will be in His presence. This song is a beautiful expression of faith and a reminder of the eternal hope we have in Jesus.
