I have had this song bouncing around my head the last few days and I was singing it again this morning as I opened my eyes. I found several versions on you tube, this one being my favorite. I also purchased two versions from Amazon.
When the singer sings “this world has nothing for me” I think of the Apostle Paul writing
But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
(Philippians 3:20-21 NIV)
and the writer of Hebrews, who in chapter 11 speaks of people of Faith
….. they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
(Hebrews 11:16 NIV)
Maranatha!
