Away from this body, at home with the Lord

I'm ready
I'm not afraid to die for I long to see You
Face to face
But You wake me in the morning
You bless me with beautiful days

I could only let out tears

when this body groans
and yearns for You alone
My heart is grateful but it is filled with pain
Dearest Lord, I'd rather be
a gatekeeper in Your house
I envy the angels around You
I long for You

I know I have so much to learn
You have a plan.
But whatever it is
nothing will be sweeter than
the day You'll come for me
From the clouds
at the sound of the trumpet
 I long for You, sweet Jesus

Father, this body of earth is weak.
I long for the one You will give me
One that can last for eternity
One that can worship You forever
Incorruptible. Indestructible.
For I long to dwell in Your presence.

You are lovely, dear Lord.
You are beautiful.
You are most high.
You are magnificent.
You are my King
You are my Savior
You are Healer
You are Comforter
You are Provider
You are God.

and i long for You.
