Dancing In the Clouds

You never force your way on me A choice you always gave me Thank God I made the right choice To receive Jesus into my life I am so glad I did That’s why today I am dancing in the clouds The day the beggar held out his cup I dropped a quarter in I really couldn’t spare it But I gave it anyway I am so glad I did That’s why today I am dancing in the clouds. The day you showed me that picture It saddened my heart so deep I had to send a dollar a day To feed a little child I am so glad I did That’s why today I am dancing in the clouds. It’s really nice to help another To remember to love my brother For the day will come Like it has for me To hear the heavenly music I am so glad I did That’s why today I am dancing in the clouds. The day my Father called me home And in the Good book pointed to my name With all the kind deeds I did on earth I am so glad I did That’s why today I am dancing in the clouds. Trumpets blast, bugles blare angels sing rejoicing before the King Just for this happy soul of mine That’s why today I am dancing in the clouds.

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers Meg. They will do all the pre-ops on Monday. I see the doctors on Wednesday for the final instructions. This is a lovely poem. I like the message and the reverence it reflects. I really like the last stanza a lot. God bless and great job! ~Joseph
