City of God

Leadsheet

v.1
I see a future
I see a country
I see a city with streets of gold,
Where we won’t grow old.

I keep my hope there.
I keep my eyes there.
Lord, keep my heart there so I’ll be bold,
And Your story’s told.

(chorus)
And we praise You now
And we’ll praise You then
For ages and ages
And ever and ever,
Amen.

v.2
I see the present
I see our country
I see our city with streets of pain
With more loss than gain.

Lord bring Your hope here
Lord open eyes here
Lord soften hearts here, let mercy flow
And Your glory show.

(chorus)

I see a future…

    "I find Marc Heinrich’s music moving and his lyrics faithful to Scripture, sobered with the real world of suffering, and creative in expression. I am happy to say: Listen and learn and be drawn further up and further in to God’s presence."

    John Piper
    Pastor for Preaching & Vision
    Bethlehem Baptist Church
    Minneapolis, MN


    "I love Further Up and Further In Music because I love Marc Heinrich. Marc is a man with a powerful gift for songwriting who loves Jesus and the local church. His lyrics are always thoughtful and theologically robust, driving us to the supremacy of Christ and the glory of the gospel."

    R W Glenn

    Pastor of Preaching & Vision
    Redeemer Bible Church
    Minnetonka, MN


    "Is that dirge they're playing one of yours Heinrich? It's not too bad." (on hearing the worship team run Only Jesus)

    "Marc is a very funny guy and a good friend. But neither of those reasons tell you why I appreciate his songs. Marc uses language and music in a creative way to express genuine struggles and joys in light of a sovereign, gracious Redeemer."
