I've always heard there is a land
Beyond the mortal dreams of man
Where every tear will be left behind
But it must be in another time
Oh-oh-oh
There'll be an everlasting light
Shining a purest holy white
And every fear will be erased
But it must be in another place
Oh-oh-oh
CHORUS:
So I'm waiting
For another and another place
Where all my hopes and dreams will be captured with one look at Jesus' face
Oh, my heart's been burning, my soul keeps yearning
Sometimes I can hardly wait for that sweet, sweet someday
When I'll be swept away
To another time and another place
I've grown tired of earthly things
They promise peace but furnish pain
All of life's sweetest joys combined
Can never match those in another time
Oh-oh-oh
And though I put my trust in Christ
And felt His spirit move in my life
I know it's truly just a taste
Of His glory in another place
Oh-oh-oh
CHORUS
Originally recorded by Sandi Patty
Behind the Song:
"What a beautiful song. The longer I live, and the more challenging life becomes, I look forward to the day I will be with Jesus. What a hope we have! I grew up listening to Sandi Patty, and this duet with Wayne Watson was one of my all-time favorites. The video was one of the first Christian music videos I ever watched as well." Janna Long (Avalon)
