"That Glorious Day"

Day 17


That Glorious Day


1. No tears tomorrow O blessed promise!
With burdens ended we’ll weep no more;
His joyful presence will banish sorrow
In God’s tomorrow, forever more.


Chorus:
No tears tomorrow, no sadness there,
No tears tomorrow, no pain or care;
All grief and heartaches He’ll take away,
In God’s tomorrow that glorious day!

2. No night, no darkness He’ll be our sunlight,
The broken hearted once more will sing
No pain, no dying in that great homeland
Where God will meet us and be our king.

Everywhere we turn in our world we see sadness, tears, darkness, burdens. It is in the headlines, in our families, in our jobs, everywhere.

Would you like a year without tears? Year, you say! How about a day!

Verse 1 includes this line: "His joyful presence will banish sorrow"

Well, even now there is joy for us! Psalm 16:11 states “You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; in Your right hand there are pleasures forever.

Psalm 21:6 For You make him most blessed forever; You make him joyful with gladness in Your presence.

Psalm 43:4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; and upon the lyre I shall praise You, O God, my God.

The chorus says; "No tears tomorrow, no sadness there, No tears tomorrow, no pain or care;"

Life is filled with sorrow and difficulty. But, there is a hope that comes from trusting in Jesus. One day He has promised that all tears will be wiped away!

This is the promise in Revelation 21:3-5: And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."

Verse 2 concludes with “No pain, no dying in that great homeland, Where God will meet us and be our king.”

Revelation 19:15 describes Jesus Christ as King of kings and Lord of lords! He will have the last word!

The Bible ends with these words: "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you[e] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."

The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. (Revelation 22:16-17)

Why not come to Jesus today? Give Him your sorrows and let him give you His peace both now and for all eternity!
