Resurrection

I have been doing a lot of thinking about heaven lately. I can hardly wait. This is when it starts.


One day I will awake.
I don't know where I'll be.
The long night of sleep done.
My soul will fill with peace.
A light will flood the sky,
Bright as you'll ever see.
It reveals a person;
Familiar to me.

Or, in tribulation.
A peace comes over me.
The time of trouble done.
At first, a mystery.
A cloud is in the sky.
A sense of destiny.
A sight will fill the sky.
That everyone can see.

A host descends to earth.
Children of darkness flee.
Terror fills their souls but,
There is no fear for me.
With the redeemed I stand.
I'm happy as can be.
This is what i've wanted.
This is my destiny.

In the sky I will meet;
Loved ones long lost to me.
Times of sorrow over.
From chains of sin set free.
We'll join with the Saviour;
The Lamb once slain for me.
With the heavenly host,
Life for eternity.
