In this house we've built of make believe
Loved ones go long before seems it's time to leave
But we'll learn how to grieve
To forgive and receive
Till we see them
there in that city
Span of stars overhead
as we walk this road
While this darkness remains
I will bear your load
And together
we will tend the seed He's sown
As we walk along
the road to that city
On that day
we'll sing holy holy
On that day
we'll bow down in the light
And then we'll rise
and turn our eyes
To the One who's the Light
