The music begins with an intriguing melody. It begins heavy, yet peaceful. Matthew starts to sing about when he passes away and goes to be with Jesus. He shares about how all of the current struggles and pains will be gone and over. The lyrics bless your heart as you ponder your own unknown life timeline that is in God’s hands.

Whether you have someone in your life who has gone to be with Jesus, is going to be with Jesus or you are pondering your own mortality, this song will bring you great comfort and peace. Reading the lyrics along with hearing the song will strengthen your faith and confidence in what the Bible has said and promised for those who have accepted Jesus as their personal Savior for their sins.

Matthew paints a picture of the beauty, healing, and everything perfect we as Christians have to look forward to in heaven. It causes a deep longing in our hearts for what is better and what lies ahead. 

The final verse sings out:

‘No this world ain't where I'm staying

There's somewhere else I'm meant to go

And when I go to be with Jesus

I'll know I'm finally home’

Death is the difficult punishment for our sins, but eternal life in Christ is the hope that we have when we are His. Jesus has rescued us, where the enemy wants us to be afraid, we can take great hope and confidence that His words are true and we will be with Him in paradise of heaven one day forever. This sinful world will no longer be weighing us down. We will be free indeed.

“My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.”  John 14:2-3
