There Will be a Day - Jeremy Camp

As I look forward to Christmas, I am thankful that Christ came into the world. The song,"There will be a day" by Jeremy Camp describes that life has its struggles.
He begins his song singing:

I try to hold on to this world with everything I have
But I feel the weight of what it brings, and the hurt that tries to grab The many trials that seem to never end, His word declares this truth, That we will enter in this rest with wonders anew
But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering


And yet, because of Christ in my life, I know that I can look forward to a very special day. Christmas is just a day to commemorate God's love in sending Him! But the very special day is when we will see Him face to face!

There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, We'll see Jesus face to face
But until that day, we'll hold on to you always

Revelation 21:4

He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
