Given Hearts That We Might Love

Given hearts that we might love, Until they're called above, With those we leave behind... Who keep our love in mind... In time, when tears have passed, We'll meet again, at last... Our lives on Earth are short And thus our thinking's caught, Yet God reveals His Word And faith inside is stirred, Such that new hope is born, No more to feel forlorn... That's why faith lights our path And teaches us to laugh And with each prayer we pray, Reach higher day-by-day... Eternal life awaits As we pass through God's Gates... Think not it's meant for all, For each must hear God's call And in a moment rise, To see through brand new eyes, Then on God's promise stand, As each one holds His hand... The ones who've gone before, Must surely know the score, For in Heaven they abide, With smiles so broad and wide, Content to wait for those Whose love still grows and grows... Be patient, then, my friends, For true love never ends, It blossoms like it must In those whose hearts still trust... There's nothing more sublime, Except we'll meet in time...
