Golden Streets

Charles Billingsley


I've just dicovered life here is easy
The hard work is over when hearts stop their beating
My moment is done, I've run out of time
But I want you to know, I'm just fine
I am thankful for His grace
It's because of His love that I'm in this place

Now I'm walking golden streets
I'm splashing in the crystal sea
I've watched a lion kiss the lamb
And I've been held by his nail-scarred hands
I've seen the Father and His glorious throne
I can't believe I'm calling heaven home
Don't you worry, don't you weep for me
'Cause I'm walking, walking golden streets

Rubies and diamonds don't mean a thing
All of their beauty is under my feet
Sapphires and pearls scattered around
They don't compare to the beautiful sound
Of angels singing praise to my Lord
And I will be listening forevermore

I'm more at peace now than I've ever been
I spend my days just praising Him
I've reaped the blessings of a faithful life
There's no way to describe
Jesus by my side...
