about

The best way to get sin off the throne of my heart is to displace it with something else - something better. I made up this song in the car back and forth on the commute to my job as nurse in Buffalo. All the percussion was created without proper instruments; I flicked my cheek, snapped, slapped my leg, and recruited someone with a bigger rib cage than mine to create the "bass drum" sound.

lyrics

Hope of heaven, rescue me
From earthly snares, from lesser dreams
Hope of heaven, I know you
Can deliver what you promise to

I’m attracted to most distractions
That God has forbidden me
Wise in his sovereignty
Harness in my wandering spirit
You’re the prize
Keep my eyes
Far from Satan’s lies

Hope of heaven, rescue me
From earthly snares, from lesser dreams
Hope of heaven, I know you
Can deliver what you promise to

I’m one heiress of Christ, the fairest
Of treasures my heart could seek
Sealed for eternity
Glorious joy wells up inside me
Overflow
There is no
Other fount I know

Hope of heaven, rescue me
From earthly snares, from lesser dreams
Hope of heaven, I know you
Can deliver what you promise to

Hope of heaven, goal of life
The Father’s love in Jesus Christ
Hope of heaven, cling to me
Till the eyes faith gave me can truly see
