“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Luke 12:34
My heart is in heaven,
In treasures I have yet to see,
Yes, my heart is in heaven,
My eyes fixed on eternity.
My feet are ever moving
In the direction of Jesus’ way,
My ears are ever listening
To the words He does say.
My lips are ever sharing
The Good News of salvation,
My voice is ever singing
In joyful adoration.
My arms are ever open
To all things embrace,
For I know all happens
By God’s sweet grace.
My thoughts are ever full
Of Jesus and His will,
Praying my heart
His Spirit does fill.
So will you join me
On travels Heaven-bound?
Will you taste what I know
Since God’s love I found?
Will you allow Jesus
To fill your heart and mind?
Will you release vanities
That true treasure you find?
Come now with me, friend,
Let us travel together,
Traversing this pathway
No matter the weather.
Whether the sun shines
Or the days are gray,
Let us walk faithfully upon
This sacred way.
With open hearts and arms
All things let us embrace,
Marveling in every moment
God’s amazing grace.
Yes, our hearts are in heaven,
In treasures we have yet to see,
Our hearts are in heaven,
Our eyes fixed on eternity.
