Gazing Down on Golden Streets


INTRO:
At this overwhelming river
My family close beside
I don’t want to go,
But they all say it’s time

VERSE 1:
Still I’m moving closer
To the sweetness of that voice
It’s my father, calling me home.

Swept into the raging current, no foothold, nothing stable
On the dark waves tossed to and fro, I gasp my first breath of eternity
In the twinkling of an eye, solid ground lies beneath me
Pulled up by a hand stronger than I’ve known

CHORUS:
Lifted high, but gazing down
Down on golden streets
A million songs behind me, echoing down
Down the golden streets
Singing broken words of praise, I kneel down –
Down on golden streets

VERSE 2:
Gazing into the eyes of peace,
gazing into the face of truth

I see you for the first time,
the one who gave me life
I hear you for the first time, you who spoke me into being
I touch you for the first time, the one who formed my flesh
In the twinkling of an eye, tears and pain lie behind me
Vanquished by a love stronger than I’ve known
