Welcome To Gentle Heart Ministries

We Are Looking For A City
I am looking for a city where there is joy and peace I'm looking for a city where all my sorrows are released
I m looking for a city where there is sorrow no more In that glorious city on GODS GOLDEN HEAVENLY SHORE
On the way to the city at CALVARY we stop to bow Along the straight, and narrow our journey begins it is all by faith now
Jesus walks beside us holding tightly to our hand He tells us of the beauty of this distant, land
As we trust Him as our Savior, the one to whom we cling Upon our feet new shoes we wear; on our finger a golden ring
He dresses us in garments of glorious translucent white Fills our lamps with oil to take us through the darkest night
We never need to worry He is walking right beside To lift us over craggy rocks, and through the raging tide
When we become tired and fear begins to assail He speaks tenderly here Iam, in the stormy gale
The more we learn to trust Him, and hold tightly to His hand The closer we get to heaven, and by faith can see that land
I must confess I'm looking for a city, a new land far away The city where I will stand victorious one bright, and glorious day
While I am here on earth I'm a sojourner here below My faith is kept alive by His promises I know
