A City of Splendor and Grace

We are bound for a city of splendor and grace,
Where farewells are never the case.
Heaven’s realm is beyond earthly scenes,
Where mansions are prepared by heavenly means.

With Love as judge, the verdict is clear,
Everyone is invited to be a part of this splendor.
Gates of pearl adorns the entrance way,
Gold-lined streets where we will forever stay.

Time runs on eternity’s sway,
Guiding us through our darkest way.
Partial knowledge we hold in our grasp,
In heaven's embrace, full wisdom clasp.

Mysteries revealed in Word’s light,
City above, shining ever so bright.
In the skies, this celestial city stands,
Beckoning us to take Heaven’s hands.

“With love as judge”…there will be no antics, no mob rule, no bribes, no misunderstandings… “Partial knowledge we hold in our grasp, In heaven's embrace, full wisdom clasp.” I look forward to taking heaven’s hand, laying my head on the lap of grace.
