Oh How I Long For Some Good news

Oh How I Long For Some Good news
23 juli 2011 om 22:21

So many people die.. just in one day.
Killing and making sure that the dead are really dead.
Oh How I Long for some good news.

Bombs in Norway and Hunger in Somalia
Living and working at the wrong time and at the wrong place
O How I long for some good news

Radiation fears and rising tides
Earth destroyed by man, science that self destructs us
O How I long for some good news

Dangerous diseases ... and I could go on for ever
I don't to hear it any more.. any longer
O How I long for some good news

And then i hear the words of this song:

The longing in my heart
For the place prepared for me
When I think of Heaven's glory
Awaiting the redeemed
All within me rises up
At the thought of what will be

How I long for the new Jerusalem
Just to see my Savior's face
All my heart is in Jerusalem
My home my resting place

I've heard that the streets are paved with gold
And the light there never fades
I've heard of treasures to behold
That words could not explain
And the praise of the saints like an ocean
Holy is the Lamb that was slain

No more crying no more pain
Every tear will be wiped away
All suffering on earth will cease
Forevermore at peace
Jerusalem Jerusalem

This is the good news.. I want to hear and proclaim...
even though I live in a world were bad news prevails.

The prayers of the The Advent Gospel Promotions team goes out to the people of Norway at this difficult time.
