Heaven's Gain (for my brother Welly Navalta)

Your servant hands, your winning smile You touched our hearts, you changed our lives Obediently answering God's call The way you preached, the words you said Those words live on beyond your death We can't forget the joy you brought to all The way you laughed, the way you cried You spoke and our souls came alive The truth and wisdom, life and joy you bring Your faith moved mountains to the sea For you saw more than we could see That by His Spirit we can do all things It is our loss, but heaven's gain By trusting in the Saviour's name The one we love is safe at Jesus' side And we know life to the full Christ gives That though man dies, yet shall he live He's home forever in the arms of Christ Your generous Spirit touched us all You gave and trusted God for more You lived your life for Jesus every day When hearts were down you'd lift our eyes When times were tough you'd realise That yielding all to Jesus is the way It is our loss, but heaven's gain By trusting in the Saviour's name The one we love is safe at Jesus' side And we know life to the full Christ gives That though man dies, yet shall he live He's home forever in the arms of Christ It is our loss, but heaven's gain By trusting in the Saviour's name The one we love is safe at Jesus' side And we know life to the full Christ gives That though man dies, yet shall he live He's home forever in the arms of Christ
