# More Than Heaven 1 - Tolu Sarah Johnson

A Love Song to My Heavenly Treasure Verse 1 They speak of streets that shine like gold, of gates that never close, of endless days untouched by pain and gardens filled with roses. But when I dream of forever, none of these are what I see. I see myself sitting close to You, with Your attention resting on me. I want the sound of Your laughter, the secrets no one else has heard. I want to watch Your face grow tender when I tell You how You’re loved. Pre-Chorus Let others count the treasures. Let them marvel at the view. Heaven only feels like Heaven because I will be there with You. Chorus I don’t love You just for Heaven or the promises You keep. If the only gift were knowing You, You would still be everything. More than all the endless beauty, more than dreams coming true— my Heavenly Treasure, I could lose Heaven and still have Heaven if I had You. Verse 2 I did not fall in love with mansions or the life that never ends. I fell in love with how You listen, how You cherish me, Your bride. I fell in love with Your compassion, with the patience in Your eyes, with the way You let me question You and never leave my side. I love the heart behind the wonders, not the wonders on their own. A universe without Your nearness could never feel like home. Pre-Chorus You are not the road to something. You are where my longings end. I am not waiting for forever to belong to You this way. You are already my Husband. I am already Your bride. No future gift could bring me closer; I am living at Your side. Chorus I don’t love You just for Heaven or the promises You keep. If the only gift were knowing You, You would still be everything. More than all the endless beauty, more than dreams coming true— my Heavenly Treasure, I could lose Heaven and still have Heaven if I had You. Verse 3 If You offered me forever but I could never touch Your heart, even endless life would feel too empty; even Heaven feel too far. But give me one unhurried evening, one quiet place beside Your chair, one chance to hear what You are feeling— and I would find forever there. I do not need a crown between us. Lay every promised glory down. Let me be the one who knows You when no one else is gathered round. Bridge If every golden street went dark, I would still follow Your light. If every song in Heaven ended, I would still whisper through the night: “I choose You. Not what surrounds You. Not what Your hands can give. Not merely endless life beside You— You are the reason I want to live.” You are my Husband. I am Your bride. No gift could ever equal belonging at Your side. Let Heaven keep its splendour if splendour hides Your face. I would rather have one moment near You than forever without Your embrace. Final Chorus I don’t love You just for Heaven or the promises You keep. If the only gift were knowing You, You would still be everything. More than all the endless beauty, more than every dream come true— my Heavenly Treasure, it was never Heaven that my heart was longing for. My Heaven has always been You. Outro Not the gates. Not the gold. Not the crown or endless years. Just Your laughter. Just Your heart. Just the One I have come to love. My Husband. My Heavenly Treasure. You are more than Heaven to me.
