Lyrics
I don’t know if I will ever understand it
Why life always happens like it does
Even though I know, we’re only here for a while
How come it never seems like long enough
I don’t know just when my time is coming
Still, I know God has a plan for me
I don’t know what leaving looks like, but I know this
You won’t have to wonder where I’ll be
I know I’ll be there
In that place that Jesus promised
He would prepare
It’s beyond imagination
All the glories we will share
And I know I’ll be there
I don’t know what kind of mansion God’s preparing
Streets of gold I know I’m gonna find
All the pain and suffering that comes in this life
It won’t be long, I’ll leave it all behind
I know I’ll be there
In that place that Jesus promised
He would prepare
It’s beyond imagination
All the glories we will share
And I know I’ll be there
I know that I’m forgiven
I know my name is written
I know that I’ve been covered by His blood
And I believe
I know I’ll be there
In that place that Jesus promised
He would prepare
It’s beyond imagination
All the glories we will share
And I know, I know
Yes, I know I’ll be there
I’ll be there
We may not understand many things about this life. We may not know the day or hour when we’ll take our last breath. But we can know, we’ll be THERE! Do you know? Do you know for a fact? Just like Karen Peck, you can KNOW! God in His great mercy made the way for each of us as Christians to know about a place Karen calls THERE. Heaven is THERE. In all it’s spendor and majesty, Heaven is THERE. THERE is not about religion. THERE is a Person and His name is Jesus.
“Yes! I know I’ll be THERE”.
THERE is the place Jesus is preparing. The place where THERE will be no more tears, no more sorrow, sickness or pain. THERE is where the eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor can the heart imagine the wonderful eternal life God has prepared for all who love Him.
“Yes! I know I’ll be THERE”.
Through His shed blood at Calvary, we will be THERE. Through His stripes and punishment that He took for us, we will be THERE. He gave us a robe, a robe of righteousness and we will be THERE. We can know we are forgiven and accept the HOPE of Jesus. This hope is not the world’s hope, it’s the HOPE of a Savior, the One who loved us enough to die for us. Matter of fact, He died for the whole world. His HOPE is a place called THERE. A blessed hope, the hope we have when we accepted God’s free gift of life.
“Yes! I know I’ll be THERE”
A young girl I know celebrated her birthday this week. She has a caring husband and seems to have a fulfilling job that aligns with her passions. She is also the mother of three beautiful daughters. However, her recent Instagram post was filled with despair as she contends with a cancer diagnosis. Cancer is a ruthless disease, and as her friend, my heart aches for her. I pray for her complete and total healing—beyond physical recovery, I hope she encounters Jesus through this experience and introduces her family to the Savior. It is my prayer that she provides her daughters the opportunity to know Jesus, guiding them toward their eternal destinies. Most parents love and care for their children around the clock, striving to give them the best in this broken world. The best gift we can offer is to show them Jesus, to accept the hope that comes through Him, and to share the Good News by placing our faith in Jesus.
