This House

D
this place
G D
the one we saw in all our dreams
this place
G A
made me want to write this down
G D
this place here in this song
G A
this place where we belong
D
this place
G D
is where we’ll make our home

this house
this house will grow out of the ground
this house
we’ll build with our own hands
this house of stone and wood
this house of peace and good
this house
is where we’ll make our home

A G D
this home will be a place for peace to be
this home glorious skies up above
this home we’ll fill with music and with joy
A G A
this home was well worth waiting for

this life
the one we saw in all our dreams
this life
made me want to write this down
this life will always be
this life for you and me
this life
is where we’ll make our home

this life
is where we’ll make our home

Between Water and Sand

D

there we are running across the field
racing for that tree
I’d help you up
but you’re there ahead of me

over the fields
over the grass the ocean is calling
we jump down and run racing again
laughing and falling

through the long grass
over the sand to where we belong
and we’ll walk between water and sand
in the words of this song

there we are sailing across the lake
making for the sand
I help you up not because you need it
I just want to hold your hand

over the dunes over the grass
something is calling
we walk hand in hand
as night time is falling

a cozy place under the moon
shining clear
we’ll rest tonight on the dunes
with nothing to fear


It Won’t Be Long

C Am F G C
Time keeps on ticking; the years seem to fly
I’m not getting younger; from pain, I can’t hide
But I know it won’t be long
I have lost loved ones at times in my life
And living without them has been a hard fight
But I know it won’t be long

C Am F G C
And I will wake up tomorrow, and life will be new
The Kingdom has come, and forever its rule
over us will bring peace
It won’t be long
C Am [F G]x2 C
Friends and loved ones we’re welcoming back
Pain and sorrow is all in the past
Yes, I know Jehovah’s will
will be done
in all the earth
It won’t be long

When I look at this world and the days we’re in
The time is reduced. It is clear, my friend
Yes, I know it won’t be long
So I try my best to do what is right
To make Jehovah the purpose in my life
’Cause I know it won’t be long

C Am F G C
And I will wake up tomorrow, and life will be new
The Kingdom has come, and forever its rule
over us will bring peace
It won’t be long
C Am [F G]x2 C
Friends and loved ones we’re welcoming back
Pain and sorrow is all in the past
Yes, I know Jehovah’s will
will be done
in all the earth
It won’t be long

F D C
Even if I don’t get to see
this old world pass away
Safe I know I will be
in Jehovah’s memory

C Am F G C
And I will wake up tomorrow, and life will be new
The Kingdom has come, and forever its rule
over us will bring peace
It won’t be long
C Am [F G]x3 CFriends and loved ones will welcome me back
Pain and sorrow is all in the past
Yes, I know Jehovah’s will
will be done
in all the earth
And we’ll see
Paradise
It won’t be long
