Quinn Throness - "Heaven is Waiting" (Lyric Video)

About time "Heaven is Waiting" got its own lyric video! For this one, I compiled a bunch of fun dugout videos and some baptism ones from this summer. My family runs the youth group where I'm from, and this is a little glimpse into what we do. All the people getting baptised were either youth leaders or youth kids. God is doing some awesome things!
Special thanks to all the people in this video. I cannot do cool flips so thank you for filling in lol. Honestly, half of the flips are my cousins, Reece and Nate, so big shout out to them! Silas, Neve, Simon, Joe, Micah, Jamee, Emma, Taylor, Lincoln, and a lot more people are also in this doing cool stuff. Y'all are awesome.
Also, thanks to Joel Fehr for the epic belly flop. That was good.
To all the people who got baptized this summer: Chloe, Cooper, Jamee, Reece, Joel, Nicole, Tacori, and Wyatt (there were lots of others but they couldn't all fit). Thank you for taking that step of faith, and for encouraging the rest of the church while you did it.
Thanks to Nathan James Larsen for writing this song with me. He also produced and mixed it. If you haven't yet, go check out his hymns album (his artist name is "Lithos")! And thanks to Sam Moses for the awesome master.
There's so much I could say and already have said about this song, but really what it is, is a song about hope. Life can get hard, but we have the promise of eternal life. Thank you to Jesus Christ for this promise, and for the inspiration to write a song about the life He gives.
"and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.” - Revelation 21:4
LYRICS
Verse 1
I used to be caught up in the plans that I made
Never thinking of the next life
Eternity
But I’ve been dealing with some things
In my own flesh
So now I look to heaven
To be rid of it
No more sin and no more pain
Chorus
I’m gonna sing
Let go of worldly dreams
Oh heaven’s waiting for me
I’m gonna sing
And I will trust when You say
Oh heaven’s waiting for me
Verse 2
Well if you’re thinking that this world has a lot to bring
With the flowers and the trees and the diamond rings
Think oh how beautiful heaven must be
So if you’re thinking that this world has a lot to give
With everything you’ve got and how you try to live
Think oh how beautiful heaven must be
Seeing Jesus face to face
(chorus)
Bridge
I’ve heard in heaven
The streets are made of gold
But what I’ll be looking for is
The absence of the old
Interlude
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na na
(chorus)
Ending
Oh heaven’s waiting for me
