When Jesus Christ came into my life, the perspective of life changed, and when that change happened, a new desire began to grow in my heart. That desire is to one day be on the new earth, in that new city where our redeemer will be waiting for us. In that place there will be no corruption, no evil, and no death because death will only be a memory.

I can now see myself in that new city, that new life where there is no corruption, the fallen state in which we are in will no longer exist. I also, imagined myself being on the edge of a cliff looking out at the sea and where the sky is blue, with white puffy clouds moving slowly, and that chill breeze that feels so refreshing at the touch of the skin. What a wonderful life that will be.

And now, for some time, I wanted to share this song “Ciudad De Dios” and here are the lyrics.

 

The title of the song is called “Ciudad De Dios”,  “City of God”.

Hay un lugar al que mi alma
Anhela tanto por llegar
Una ciudad donde hay descanso
Y gozo por la eternidad
Se que pronto allá estaré;
Con mis ojos yo veré
Aquel que vino a rescatarme
Para llevarme a allí con élCoro
He aquí que la presencia del Señor
Mora en medio de los hombres que él salvó
Ellos son su pueblo y él su eterno Dios
La ciudad de Dios es lo que anhelo yoParte 1
Hay un lugar resplandeciente,
Donde no hay más oscuridad
No existe más un enemigo;
Se vive en plena libertad
Santa y dulce comunión,
Sin vergüenza ni temor
Su justicia cubre por siempre
Mi pecado y corrupciónParte 2
Hay un lugar donde su gloria
Satisface el corazón
Recibiré la recompensa:
Me abrazará mi Salvador
Ya no hay llanto ni dolor;
No hay más prueba ni aflicción
La muerte es sólo una memoria,
Recuerdo de la redención

There is a place where my soul
Longs so much to arrive
A city where there is rest
And joy for eternity
I know that soon I will be there;
With my eyes I will see
The one who came to rescue me
To take me there with him

Chorus
Behold, the presence of the Lord
Dwell in the midst of the men he saved
They are his people and he his eternal God
The city of God is what I long for

Section 1
There is a shining place
Where there is no more darkness
There is no longer an enemy;
He lives in full freedom
Holy and sweet communion,
Without shame or fear
His justice covers forever
My sin and corruption

Section 2
There is a place where his glory
Satisfies the heart
I will receive the reward:
My Savior will embrace me
There is no more crying or pain;
There is no more trial or affliction
Death is just a memory
Memory of redemption
