One day I'll complete my journey
I'll arrive at my destination
A city like no one living has ever known
The Spirit at work within me
Creates such an awesome hunger
To finish the race and turn for home

Heaven is my passion and prize
The goal on which I firmly fix my eyes
Reward of the faithful, desire of the wise
Heaven is my passion and prize

I long to be single minded
And leave all the things I cling to
Throwing off all that hinders and weighs me down
Leaving the past behind me
I run for the goal before me
To finish the course and gain the crown

Heaven is my passion and prize
The goal on which I firmly fix my eyes
Reward of the faithful, desire of the wise
Heaven is my passion and prize

One glorious day, I'll live in a body that knows no decay
Oh, how I live for that day when I will naturally trust 
and obey

Heaven is my passion and prize
The goal on which I firmly fix my eyes
Reward of the faithful, desire of the wise
Heaven is my passion and prize
