A Castle In the Sky
Ahh! First glimpse of my mansion!
What unexpected grandeur!
A glistening structure of elegance,
Built to long endure!
Designed by the Master architect,
Who knows me through and through.
He didn’t ask me about this castle,
He knew exactly what to do.
He placed it on a high point,
Like a city on a hill.
It can be seen far away,
Showing His stately skill.
Built to last for eternity,
On streets of gold, to look sublime.
Near gates of pearl and walls of jasper,
With a touch of pure divine!
