At Heaven's Door

A closed door opens to my knock A stranger stands at the frame ‘Welcome to heaven' a voice spoke ‘Beneath you is hell’s eternal flame You’ve been truly an honest bloke You have a new home in this realm' A dream from which I awoke In bed to wonder about it all About life and the heaven I seek About sin, death and the devil And the wasted chances I never took To go to church and humble myself to kneel Pray with my hands firmly clenching the book To put God first is my new found mission I’m reminded so more and more Each day I switch on the television We need him more than we ever did before God came to me that night in a vision A warning, if I’ll be standing at heaven’s door
