We do not wait for heaven - v2

We do not wait for heaven - v2


Our joy is overwhelming;

We walk in God’s presence;

We do not wait for heaven;

We live in abundance now.


We dip our cups, our lives,

into the gospel, into scripture;

We drink of the living waters

of paradise, of eternal life.


We are promised heaven

but abundance is in the present;

We live into the promise, the miracle

of Christ, God here with us.


We are filled by the Spirit,

Christ’s indwelling presence;

We do not wait for heaven;

We live in abundance right now.

We do not wait for heaven

We do not wait for heaven


Our joy is overwhelming;

We walk in God’s presence;

We do not wait for heaven;

We live in abundance now.


We dip our cups

into the gospel, into scripture;

We drink of the waters

of paradise, of eternal life.


We are promised heaven

but abundance is present;

We live into the miracle

of Christ, God here with us.


We are filled by the Spirit

Christ’s indwelling presence;

We do not wait for heaven;

We live in abundance right now.
