"Further up and further in" mp3 Instrumental version
 
  Music written by Francis Cummings for 'Fire from the North' Conference 2005

The new heavens and the new earth

Look, I am creating new heavens
and a new earth,
and no one will even think about the old ones anymore.
(Is. 65:17-18)

 
 
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth,
for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared.
The sea also was gone.
And I saw the holy city,
the new Jerusalem,
coming down from God out of heaven
like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.

I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying,
“Look, God’s home is now among his people!
He will live with them,
and they will be His people.

 

God Himself will be with them.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes,
and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain.
All those things are gone forever.”

And the one sitting on the throne said,
“Look, I am making everything new!”
“Write this down,
for what I tell you is trustworthy and true.”

(Rev. 21:1-5)

Reawaken us, Lord Jesus, to the call
of how Heavenly things will truly be. Selah
Where the limitations of our earthly roles and responsibilities
have placed too tight a constriction on our perspective,
and led to so many routine repetitions,
we choose now to eagerly consider
the heavenly rewards you spoke so much about
and to anticipate the Epiphany of our Lord.

We discard from our hearts
all that tends to the ‘What’s the point?’
– and even the assumption
that all will be so well catered for in Heaven
that there will be nothing for us to do.

Expand in our mind the Narnian cry of “Further up and further in;” 
for even in Heaven You have so much more in store for us.

For nothing of value 
that You direct us to on Earth 
will ever be lost, 
in a Kingdom 
where seeds acquire 
their fullest expression 
and all we long for 
finds its richest outworking.
