The final one - i'll give everyone a break from me after this. It's a song that my church leader really liked but one I've kind of overlooked so some more opinions on it would be great.

Sorry if the recordinsg not that great.

Capo 1:

Verse 1:
______D__D2_________D__D2
Where pain, will come to end
Am7____Am__Cmaj7__A
Tears will fall, never again
______D_D2________D_D2
We will rest, with You safe
Am7_____Am_Cmaj7__A
Meet with You, face to face

Chorus:
_________D___________A
Where no tears will fall, no hearts will cry
______G__________________A
We will rest in Your arms, open wide
______G__D_________A____Asus
We will be, safe in Your arms
______D________________A
Where death will cease, and pain will end
______G_________________A
We will rest with You, Faithful Friend
______G__A_________D
We will be, safe in Your arms

Verse 2:
Where crowns will be laid down
To their knees the earth will fall
And all will cry holy, bowed before the King

Tag:
______ G____A___D
In Your Kingdom of power
______ G____A___D
In Your Kingdom of love
(repeat)

James,

You are a good writer. I appreciate the focus and consistent theme. There are not allot of songs that solely communicate our longing to join Him in heaven.

My suggestion is to try and branch out with the chords, melody and meter of the words.
Experiment for a good hour or so with anything and everything in order to bring a freshness to the presentation.

good luck!

well done and thanks for sharing!
