This life is not the end of living
There is a life after our worldly life
A new heaven and a new earth
Keep your heart focused on paradise

Rejection, pain and loneness are not part of paradise
A weakened body and sadness cry out for paradise
Our marriages and our jobs are not paradise
Dreams that die, remind us this is not paradise

Sin and diseases are not part of paradise
But we are children of God, guaranteed paradise
Stop searching for it in a fallen world
Live in hope, because paradise is surely coming

Beware of taking sin lightly
It crucified our Savior
Pierced His heart and made Him suffer
Run quickly away from the slightest sin

Our Savior has come into our world
He is our Master and He is here now
He calls us to his ethics, standard and ideals
To what he has said and to the life he lived
