The goal is Christ

O Lord my God
You see our pain
We cry to you in prayer
On frevent knee's
We open our hearts 
To you O Lord in prayer
You remind us that
You are always there

That you have overcome
Overcome the world for us
O great and blessed King
In the mist of life
A life full of pressures 
You O God
Are guiding us throughout
Encouraging us everyday
And you are always near
A faithful God to answer

And O Lord we pray
Keep us O Lord
As the apple of your eye
Help us to look forward 
Forward to our goal...
...Heaven with you
Life is all about you
Not the pleasures of this world
Life is about our serving you
Finding a refuge in your shadow
Like a child in its father's arms
Or chicks under its mother's wing

Let us remember
That our reward is in Heaven
A life forever with you
Death is not our end
But our greater beginning
To a life eternal with you
One without pain
Rarther a constant joy in you
So when the days get hard
And life gets tough
Remember that our goal is Christ
In Him a union perfect and glorious
And eternal life with Him.
JH
27-8-16

As for me, I shall behold Your face in righteousness;
I will be satisfied with your likeness when I awake.
Psalm 17:15

Let us focus our eyes once more on Christ our goal, looking forward till the day when we shall behold Him face to face.
