Thank you God - this world is not our home.

Gloomy weather and melancholy music make for a perfect Sunday afternoon. Dan Haseltine's haunting vocals are currently blasting through my house and I've had to repeat track 3 over and over today. This awesome song is on Jars of Clay's new album, Good Monsters. I love their version and you ALL need to download it immediately. :-) Such a simple, hopeful message, when the weight of the world seems a little too heavy to bear...hope it blesses you.
All My Tears - Jars of Clay (written by Julie Miller)

When I go don't cry for me
In my Father's arms I'll be
The wounds this world left on my soul
Will all be healed and I'll be whole

Sun and moon will be replaced
With the light of Jesus' face
And I will not be ashamed
For my Savior knows my name

It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away

Gold and silver blind the eye
Temporary riches lie
Come and eat from heaven's store
Come and drink and thirst no more

So weep not for me, my friend
When my time below does end
For my life belongs to Him
Who will raise the dead again

It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free
It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away

Here's an awesome review of the album:
