A Call To Grace
Gates of heaven open - Judgment Day
Spirits of those who drifted away
Loved ones bringing messages of hope
Sliding through the stars, shimmering slope
Angels descending, bring from above,
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love
Those who lived according to God’s plan
Reach out to spirits, taking their hand
Retrieved and ascending, they head home
No longer upon the Earth to roam
Heaven-bound souls leave dark ones behind
In a tempestuous Earth confined
