I felt heaven

lyrics

I Felt Heaven

I leave you peace; my peace I give you. I do not give it to you as the world does. So don't let your hearts be troubled or afraid
(John 14:27, NCV)

Heaven, heaven I felt heaven, I felt heaven, heaven, heaven

I will not leave you orphaned. I'm coming back. In just a little while the world will no longer see me, but you're going to see me because I am alive and you're about to come alive. At that moment you will know absolutely that I'm in my Father, and you're in me, and I'm in you.
(John 14:18-20, The Message)

Somehow I knew
Felt your presence there
Sometime pain had chained me
Still You are there
I felt You care
You took my hand
You led me on
You made my heart a dreamer
I`m not alone
Not alone

Heaven, I felt heaven
Your arms around me
Your love surrounds me
Heaven, I felt heaven

So lift me high
High above all these tears
Set my spirit dancing
Free from all fear
I need You near

Heaven, I felt heaven
Your arms around me
Your love surrounds me
Heaven, I felt heaven

Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by name; you are mine.
When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
For I am the LORD, your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Saviour
(Isaiah 43:1-13, NIV)

Heaven, send me heaven
Your arms around me
Your love surrounds me
Your words inside me
Your touch to guide me
Heaven, heaven
