In the presence of Jesus,
One day I’ll stand;
And I’ll sing with the angels
In that Heavenly land.
He’ll lead me to glory,
Just as He said;
And at His feet I will lay
The crown from my head.
I’ll shout “Hallelujah!
Praise God I’m free!”
I’ll bow down before Him
And weep at His feet.
My salvation is sure –
Not feeling, but fact;
Purchased and paid for
By His selfless act.
His death on the cross
Was the price paid for me;
And in the presence of Jesus
One day I’ll be!

inheritance, being predestined according
to the purpose of Him who works all things
according to the counsel of His will.
