Eternity

It is not the glitter
Not the gold
Not the silver
Not the sapphire
It is not prestige

Not man's applause
Not our accolades
Not our talents
Not our skills

What matters most
Is Your presence
Salvation
Your hand of love
Your favour
The touch of Your grace
The life and light of Christ
The gifts of the Spirit
The fullness of Your Spirit

Your abiding presence
Your unending hope
Eternity
Your purposes
And plans
Things that 
Moth and rust 
Cannot destroy
Set our hearts
On pilgrimage

Flood us with Your presence
Your precious presence 
Your pure presence 
Your holy presence 
Seal our hearts 
For the courts above
Set our hearts ablaze
Set us apart for You
And You alone
You put eternity 
In our hearts
