Lyrics

How I long to breathe the air of Heaven
Where pain is gone and mercy fills the streets
To look upon the one who bled to save me
And walk with Him for all eternity

There will be a day
When all will bow before Him
There will be a day
When death will be no more
Standing face to face
With He who died and rose again
Holy holy is the Lord

Every prayer we prayed in desperation
The songs of faith
We sang through doubt and fear
In the end we’ll see that it was worth it
When He returns to wipe away our tears

There will be a day
When all will bow before Him
There will be a day
When death will be no more
Standing face to face
With He who died and rose again
Holy holy is the Lord

On that day we join the resurrection
And stand beside the heroes of the faith
With one voice a thousand generations
Sing worthy is the Lamb who was slain

On that day we join the resurrection
And stand beside the heroes of the faith
With one voice a thousand generations
Sing worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Forever He shall reign

So let it be today
We shout the hymn of Heaven
With angels and the Saints
We raise a mighty roar
Glory to our God
Who gave us life beyond the grave
Holy holy is the Lord
Holy holy is the Lord
Holy holy is the Lord

So let it be today
We shout the hymn of Heaven
With angels and the Saints
We raise a mighty roar
Glory to our God
Who gave us life beyond the grave
Holy holy is the Lord
Holy holy is the Lord
Holy holy is the Lord

Thank you for this song, Phil. We need it now, today, after the attack on Israel in 2023, even more than in 2020. I especially love the words, "the songs of faith we sang through doubt and fear"

[adedayoadeniji]

Yes Phil. There is always a history behind every hymn....and the greatest story of all....Our Lord and Saviour who died for all, won the greatest victory of all beyond the grave, when He gave His all. You are definitely filled with the Holy Spirit and move my heart to tears!
Thank you! 🥰

I wish more Christians made Jesus the King of kings that He is.

Listened to this song numerous times. The reason I bought the Album. The whole album is inspired. Always turns my mind to God. X

[AChristianmama]

Thank you so much for this song (really for all of your songs). But this one in particular, my word, I cannot help but visualize what is described here. Singing with all the saints that have gone before us---praising Almighty God together with countless believers. And like you said, this can start today!! I have listened to this song so many times, but each time I sing along with happy tears in my eyes. You truly have captured a mighty prayer in this song. Thank you again.

[willowwillow]

His songs are special. I am using rejoicing, crying, or both by the end. I love how he is always glorifying the Lord. His songs are not vain, or about him, but Jesus! Thanks for giving me words to express my love of Jesus.
