I have a longing in my heart to see the Lord,
I have a longing in my heart for His return;
Too much trouble here to bear,
Too much worries, too much fear;
I have a longing in my heart
to see the Lord.
Many times my burdens seem
so hard to carry,
Many times i have to smile
to hide my tears;
But in heaven there will be
no cross to carry;
There will be no sorrow
through the countless years.
