Dream of Dreams

When twilight woos me to that enchanted hour 
when my eyes grow weary and heavy with sleep 
I’ll dream of You, Lord, and a thousand tomorrows 
for only in You will my restless soul keep. 

In heaven above, I’ll touch grand, pearly gates
I’ll walk hand in Hand upon gold gilded streets 
I’ll see pure, sparkling waters at the River of life
flowing forth from the great white throne at Your feet. 

I’ll meet every saint in their heavenly state 
their glad eyes glowing with kindness and care
and a countenance of love, with all burdens lifted 
up high in that haven of heaven, so fair. 

But most of all, I’ll see Your face, oh Lord
for none other can compare, on earth or above
then I’ll fall on Your feet, with worship unending 
‘til You gather me into Your arms of Love.

Sweet reverent poetry Laura. You might be surprised to know I have no interest in going to heaven. My hope lies here (Matthew 5:5) and here (Psalm 37:29) and here (Proverbs 2:20-22)

Dear Laura, What an amazing journey into the realm of faith and longing. Through your poetic words, I am transported to a place where the weary find peace in the promise of divine embrace. I love how your descriptions of the celestial beauty and the ultimate reunion with the Jesus stirs the soul to contemplate the profound mysteries of existence. A wonderful portrayal of a boundless love that transcends earthly bounds seeking the eternal quest for spiritual fulfillment. - Blessings, Daniel
