This isn't a song that is real popular, but I love it. It's called the Martyr's Song (Todd Agnew), however, the imagery of God's delight in welcoming his saints home is not only applicable to martyrs, but to all the saints: "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints" (Psalms 116:15, ESV). Ted Dekker makes this imagery incredible vivid in The Circle Trilogy (Black/Red/White). I haven't liked anything else Dekker has written, but loved the Circle Trilogy (great pictures of sin, grace, redemption and God's joy).
