Until Then

James 5:8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

It’s hard to be patient when you are waiting to see Jesus. 


This world gets weary.  


“But until then my heart will go on singing.”  (Stuart Hamblen)


Until Then

_______________


My heart can sing when I pause to remember.    —   A heartache here is but a stepping stone    —   Along a path 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 that 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 this 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.
