We'll walk on streets that are purest gold.
                        2
         My Lord walks with me, He is my companion,
             I know my dwelling is in heaven.
          I am a pilgrim, who wanders in this world,
          But my Lord awaits me in my new home.
                        3
          This life is filled with suffering and sorrow,
         But I'm not discouraged, I'm heaven bound;
           My days of anguish shall all disappear
           I'll have a mansion, a robe, and crown.
                        4
      The streets of gold and the doors lined with pearls,
             A wall of jasper, no temple there;
         No moon or sunshine; How lovely it shall be!
        Our home shall brighten by the Peace of Christ.

         LOTW Miguel A. Huerta I GRACE/ Ecc 9.8 MEDITATION
           Sometimes I ask myself the reason why
             You've given me such treasures;
      Do I truly deserve your grace? Do I deserve your love?
      I've courage and Your faith! Your kindness upon me!
            You gave me of Your grace and faith!
               You made me free indeed!
                     CHORUS
         Your balm erased my deep and bitter pain!
        You sheltered me when winter's cold had come!
           You bandaged all my wounds so well,
               With sweet and tender love!
          You set a place for me among Your own!
           And in Your arms I found a perfect rest!
              You sent a Holy Man for me,
              And I have known your bliss!
                (END: An Apostle of God)

          My Lord, the years are passing swiftly by,
