Your Presence Is Heaven
Darlene Zschech's song 'Your Presence Is Heaven' is a worship ballad that expresses the surpassing worth of God's presence. The lyrics contrast earthly satisfaction with the eternal fulfillment found in Jesus, describing Him as a cup that never runs dry. The song acknowledges God's mercy in weakness and His role as Redeemer of past and future. It culminates in a longing to see God face to face, affirming that His presence is the ultimate heaven. The repeated refrain emphasizes that being with God is the believer's greatest treasure.
Who is like You Lord in all the earth
Matchless love and beauty, endless worth
Nothing in this world will satisfy
Jesus You're the cup that won't run dry
Your presence is Heaven to me
Your presence is Heaven to me
Treasure of my heart and of my soul
In my weakness You are merciful
Redeemer of my past and present wrongs
Holder of my future days to come
Your presence is Heaven to me
Your presence is Heaven to me
Your presence is Heaven to me
Your presence is Heaven to me
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Your presence is Heaven to me
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Your presence is Heaven to me
All my days on earth I will await
The moment that I see You face to face
Nothing in this world will satisfy
'Cause Jesus You're the cup that won't run dry
Nothing in this world will satisfy
Jesus You're the cup that won't run dry
Jesus You're the cup that won't run dry
Your presence is Heaven to me
Your presence is Heaven to me
Your presence is Heaven to me
Your presence is Heaven to me
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Your presence is Heaven to me
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Your presence is Heaven to me
[repeat]
