Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
We, who are saved, groan to be free from these bodies, to be remade into the image of the Lord Jesus.
I’m so glad that day is coming.
James 5:8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.
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.
CHORUS:
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.
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. - - -
