He Will Call:

Life, like a mist, appears for just a day, then disappears tomorrow. All that we are can quickly fade away, replaced with tears and sorrow. If a man should die, can he live again? Hear the promise God has made: He will call; the dead will answer. They will live at his command. For he will have a longing for the work of his own hand.  So have faith, and do not wonder, for our God can make us stand.  And we will live forever, as the work of his own hand.

Friends of our God, though they may pass away, will never be forsaken. All those asleep who in God's memory stay, from death he will awaken. Then we'll come to see all that life can be Paradise eternally. He will call; the dead will answer.  They will live at his command. For he will have a longing for the work of his own hand. So have faith, and do not wonder, for our God can make us stand.  And will live forever, as the work of his own hand.

See Yourself When All Is New:

Just see yourself, just see me too; just see us all in a world that is new. Think how you'll feel, how it will be. To live in peace, to be truly free.  No evil one will then prevail; Rule by God cannot ever fail. The time will come for a new earthly start, the song of our praises will pour out from our hearts. "We thank you, our God, for all you have done.  All things are new by the rule of your Son.   The fullness of our heart overflows in our song. All glory and honor and praise to you belong."

Now see yourself and see me too; and look ahead to a world that is new. No sight we see, no sound we hear will cause alarm or give rise to fear. All has come true, just as he said; Now over mankind, his tent is spread.  He now will awaken those sleeping in death; Their voices will join us with every grateful breath; "We thank you, our God, for all you have done.

All things are new by the rule of your Son. The fullness of our heart overflows in our song; All Glory and honor and praise to you belong."

Peace at Last:

Like an Island of calm in dark stormy seas, God's people are living in peace.

With our eyes of faith, we see beyond the clouds. And know that the storm will soon cease.

To the ends of the earth, there'll be peace at last. For all eternity from the valleys below

To the mountaintops, Peace at last. When the new world is here. All will be one. On earth and in heaven above. And the peace we'll know. We've never known before-A world ruled by justice and love. To the ends of the earth, there'll be peace at last. For all eternity.

From the valleys below to the mountain tops, all creations will see. Peace at last. To the ends of the earth, there'll be peace at last. For all eternity. From the Valleys below the mountains, all creation will see. To the ends of the earth, there'll be peace at last. For all eternity. From the valleys below to the mountaintops, all creation will see Peace at last,

Peace at last!
