That's Paradise Lyrics - Singles - Chapman Steven Curtis

Jimmy and Mary were quite a pair back in their younger days 

They met a married in six weeks time and 

That was sixty years ago this May 

Four kids made a house a home and a love for Jesus kept them strong 

Now every morning at eight A..M.. Jimmy takes a drive through town 

He spends his days at Mary's side 

In a home for the old and broken down 

With a cane in his lap and a Bible in his hand 

He reads her stories about the promised land 

And with tears in their eyes they dream of a place 

Where everything changes in the light of Jesus' face and 

CHORUS 

That's paradise... Hey, that's paradise... 

When the life breaks through and the old's made new 

And the joy will never die, that's paradise 

In another corner of this world, met another man named Jim 

Told me how twenty years of running from God 

Had finally gotten the best of him 

He said all hope was gone and he wanted to die 

'Cause what could God do with such a messed up guy 

So we talked about Jesus, God's love and His plan 

And when Jim walked away he was a brand new man and 

(Chorus) 

Now listen, 

Well I know the best remains to be seen 

In a place that's far beyond our wildest dreams 

But until we see heaven we've got Jesus' world 

That He'll never leave us and each prayer will be heard 

(Chorus)
