HEAVEN'S FIRST HOUR
HEAVEN'S FIRST HOUR (Philippians 1:21& 3:21, Proverbs 14:32, I Corinthians 15:12-16, 35-58 ) In death the righteous have refuge, The departed have no pain, The upright find peace and rest; To die, therefore, is gain. An end to an earthly finish, Is also a heavenly start. A family of saints await, As our earthly kin we depart. A perfect and glorious body, Will replace the one on earth. From the travail and labor of death, We're delivered in a heavenly birth. So, oh, Death, where is thy sting? Oh, Death, where is thy power? Jesus has swallowed it up forever; There begins heaven's first hour. Becky Wall
