SONG 145
God’s Promise of Paradise
-
1. A paradise our God has promised,
By means of Christ’s Millennial Reign,
When he’ll blot out all sin and error,
Removing death and tears and pain.
(CHORUS)
A paradise, the earth will be.
With eyes of faith, this we can see.
This promise Christ will soon fulfill,
For he delights to do God’s will.
-
2. Soon here on earth, as God has purposed,
His Son will cause the dead to rise.
Then it will be as Jesus promised:
‘You’ll be with me in Paradise.’
(CHORUS)
A paradise, the earth will be.
With eyes of faith, this we can see.
This promise Christ will soon fulfill,
For he delights to do God’s will.
-
3. The Paradise, our Lord has promised,
And he is now our reigning King.
We daily thank our loving Father,
And from our hearts, his praises sing.
(CHORUS)
A paradise, the earth will be.
With eyes of faith, this we can see.
This promise Christ will soon fulfill,
For he delights to do God’s will.
