I don't often share songs on here and I don't too often talk about my babies that are living in Heaven's nursery instead of my home here on earth. But that doesn't mean they are ever far from my thoughts!

   I found a link to this song on a friends blog this morning. That friend lost her precious little three year old last summer in a tragic accident. No warning. No time to say goodbye. She is amazing in her faith. Most of the time she is simply so gratefull for the time she had with him and for the hope of Heaven one day. But there are dark day and hard times.

   My dark days were five years ago now, mostly. But there are still days when the holes in my heart ache so. There are still days when Heaven seems so far away and yet so close. I miss my babies. I also miss friends like Dee who went on ahead so suddenly.

   I remember my grandparents saying to me when I was young that Heaven would seem much sweeter to me as time went on. When I was young I didn't really want the Lord to return too soon. I wanted a chance to live my life and to experience life for myself. But they were right. The more people I know and love who change their address to Heaven, the sweeter the thought of getting there one day becomes.

   This song had me in tears this morning, so be warned and find some tissues before you click. I will also post the words at the end so you can read along. The words are so powerfully true. Be encouraged. We have a great home waiting for us. This is only a 'holiday home' for a short time! Nice though it is, we will eventually long to go HOME! And those who have made the trip before us will be there to welcome us with open arms and show us around.

All you saw was pain
All you saw was rain
But you should see me now
Moments filled with tears
Lasted all those years
Disappeared somehow
You never said goodbye
On your knees you cry
You're still asking why, but

Blue has never been bluer
True has never been truer
Honey never tasted so sweet
There's a song in the breeze
A million voices in praise
A rose has never smelled redder
The sun has never been brighter
If I could find the right words to say
If you could look at my face
If you could just see this place
You wouldn't cry for me today

What you think you see
Isn't really me
I'm already home
You've got to lay it down
'Cause Jesus holds me now
And I am not alone
Your faith is wearing thin
But I am watching Him
And He's holding you, too

CHORUS

What may seem like years will just be a moment
Oh, the day will come
When I'll show you where you're going
I can't wait to show you that

CHORUS
