Heavens Rejoice (Grant demo)

(Grant June)
January 19, 2010
Grant June
This song practically wrote itself as I was trying to wrap my head around the Haiti earthquake and the massive devastation and loss of lives.
Lord, please give me some faith to believe
I need it now more than ever
Why must we suffer? My sorrow is so great
I’d give up my now for never

Yesterday was a sun-kissed glorious day
Today the world came crashing down
My faith has been completely shaken
Since everything crumbled to the ground

I’ve been walking in darkness for days
I don’t want to stay. Lord, take me away.
Though I do not understand, I’m trusting in Your plan

Heaven just became more wonderful and lovely
Heaven just gained one more beautiful voice
As we live with pain, we’re sad and we’re lonely
Our tears may flow, but the heavens rejoice

Lord, please give me the strength to go on
I can’t make it on my own
All the love, and the prayers, and the gifts from the world
Will slowly help me find my way home

Been in this valley of death for days
I don’t want to stay. Lord, show me the way.
Though I do not understand, I’m leaving it in Your Hands

Heaven just became more wonderful and lovely
Heaven just gained one more beautiful voice
As we live with pain, we’re sad and we’re lonely
Our tears may flow, but the heavens rejoice

Heaven just became more wonderful and lovely
Heaven just gained one more beautiful voice
As we begin to live and love in their memory
Heavens rejoice, the heavens rejoice

Finally home, you are finally home
And I will see you soon.
