What I Dreamed That Night

What I Dreamed That Night Looking out of the window While snow fell to the ground Reminded me of a dreamed And the peace of mind I found Before I fell asleep I Had many questions In my heart On how to love and Somehow please God I tossed and turned trying To fall asleep Pleasing God was like a tape In my head on repeat I tried to push away The cold feeling inside I remember about twelve O’clock I finally closed my eyes I dreamed I was in heaven Oh what a beautiful sight Big golden gates, and The streets shinned so bright There were fluffy white clouds Standing all around I floated on air, and My feet could touch no ground When I walked closer to the gates They began to swing open wide Seconds later I found myself inside There were Angels flying Above my head Welcome home child; That’s what they said You wondered in your mind What it takes to please God There were many questions You planted in your heart Up here there’s peace You’re happy and free Take a look around and Tell me what do you see? I see a city with streets Paved with gold I see many of God’s Created souls Setting around the table Eating honey and Drinking milk Even My gown is Now made of silk I see three gates in the south West, North, and East The saints setting around Having a wonderful feast I spent my time seeking God the whole summer Point me in his direction I need to ask him something I want to please him but I don’t know how I need to get an answer From God right now The moment I spoke A bright light appeared I knew from that moment My faith wasn't seal I wanted to see his face But the light was too bright I couldn't see him, only feel His present in my sight He said its easy if You want to please me The answer is plain And so simple you see God began to tell me what I had to do and it didn't seem clear His voice began to fade and I Couldn't really hear His voice kept fading Until I open my eyes Not knowing what To feel inside Suddenly the sun through The window shinned bright And I remembered what I dreamed that night I wanted to know how I could please God This was something that Always burned in my heart I walked to the door And I looked out side Suddenly it hit me as Tears ran from my eyes I believe that I went to heaven And had a conversation with God I believed in that dream With all my heart He said the answer is plain As can be A voice whispered saying Just have faith in me What I dreamed that night Let me know it’s not too late And to please God; All I need is faith
