Journey

As I was setting and looking afar,

and angel came
and stood by my side. He said come

with me, for we are going on a journey.

So I took his hand, for I did not fear.
As we were walking we started

to ascend upwardbeyond the clouds.

The heavens started to open
as if they were expecting us. I thought for a moment
what a beautiful dream. We enter into a gate, and there
I saw many mansions and streets paved with gold.
The walls surrounding the mansions were maked
of precious stones.
Then a bright light appeared in the distance, as it grew
Nearer it became brighter, THEN I Saw “HIM” holy
And glorious was HE “Oh” what an awesome sight,
to see my savior coming for me.
As He took my hand I realize this was not a dream.
I was home at last with my savior and my family
