This world is not what it was meant to be All this pain, all this suffering There’s a better place waiting for me In heavenEvery tear will be wiped away Every sorrow and sin erased We’ll dance on seas of amazing grace In heaven I’m goin’ Lay down my burdens, I lay down my past Blinded eyes will finally see |

This song from Jeremy Camp is all about asking God to help us leave behind the things in our past and our fallen human nature that keep us from following God with our whole heart.
