Eternitys Inn

One day I made a reservation at Pleasure Inn.
  I found the room quite pleasurable and pleasing to the eye,
  the bed was made nicely and the room service just right; 
  whenever I was in need I just made the call. But, I wanted
  something new...so,

One day I made a reservation at Sorrows Inn.
  I found that the outside looked good but the room was rather 
  untidy, it was all I could do to make it pleasing to me. 
  Things didn't seem right, the bed wasn't made to fit my style,
  the air too stuffy, windows jammed and the room service on break.
  I wondered if this was the place for me?...so,

One day I made a reservation at Reasoning Inn.
  I found things on the up, I learned to trade for the 'better'
  whenever things went wrong just to keep the up from going down.
  It seemed the only logic of reasoning and yet, I knew 
  the up had to come down, eventually.
  Happiness I couldn't afford and life seemed impossible to live...then,

One day a call came to say, 
  " I have made you a reservation at Eternity's Inn,
    I expect nothing in return, yet you will trust and love me.Come! "
    My heart knew the I now was HE because the somehow now was Grace,
    I no longer search for the place that I belong. 
    Behold, The Greatest Love ever!

One day twas all it took, One moment and a reservation had been made.
  The bed I lie in isn't always made but the sheets are always clean
  at Eternity's Inn.
