Someday Around the Throne of God


At yesterday's worship-service 
as we sang I was struck with an awesome rush of joy
as I thought of Someday, when from the four corners of the earth
God's family will worship without being hounded/distracted
by darts and daggers of the enemy!




Someday around the Throne of God, what a day that will be
As from each tribe and nation salvation’s worshipers kneel
Unhindered then, by mortal need or darts of enemy
Someday around the throne of God what flawless praise will peal

The Over-comer of the world with proof unfurled, will reign
No fears, no tears, sickness or pain can ever enter where
We’ll be with He who saved us from the wrath to come, through Him
Someday around the throne of God, what fellowship we’ll share

Someday faith will be sight, and hope will cease and so will prayer
From the four corners of the earth His followers will rise
Those who were dead will shed the grave and meet Him in the air
Someday, around the throne of God, worship will laud the Prize

His hallelujah hymn will thunder like a rushing tide
Someday a celebration unlike any earth has known
Will fill eternity when the Groom comes to claim His bride
And She will never cease His praise someday around God’s throne

 Rev.19:6-9

Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude,
 like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:
“Hallelujah!
    For our Lord God Almighty reigns. 
 Let us rejoice and be glad
    and give him glory!
For the wedding of the Lamb has come,
    and his bride has made herself ready. 
 Fine linen, bright and clean,
    was given her to wear.”
(Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of God’s holy people.)
  Then the angel said to me, “Write this: 
Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!” 
And he added, “These are the true words of God.”
