In a Different Light

So last week I decided I had been listening to the same six cd's in my car for about 8 months (creature of habit) and figured it was time to switch them out. I randomly came across an old Avalon cd that I'm pretty sure was my sister's that I kind of borrowed and forgot to return... Anyway this cd was my favorite for a long time, mostly because of Number Three, "In a Different Light". I typed the lyrics below, but what is so ironic about this is that this past Sunday, my Pastor did a sermon about Heaven. It is so nice and comforting every now and then to be reminded that if we live in Christ, we get to spend eternity there with Him! And this song makes me feel so good and reminds me that when I'm having a bad day, it really doesn't matter because the time we spend here is nothing compared to where we get to spend FOREVER! I hope this song touches everyone who reads this the same way it touches me.


Don't cry for me
No, I've never been one to shoulder the weight of the world
'Cause I believe
This is here and it's now, but it's not my home
There's a hope beyond what my eyes can see
And there's a place that He's preparing for me
Nothing's gonna keep us here
We'll go a different way
It'll be all right
From the other side we'll see it clear
On a different day
In a different light
Don't be afraid
Of the twists and the turns of the road that we're on, just believe
There'll come a day
When our faith turns to sight, and we'll see His face
While we're here the heartache's hard to ignore
So for now, we'll keep our eyes on the Lord
Though for now, we see things dimly
There's a voice that speaks within me
Leading me to a different light
In a different way
In a different light
