Flight To Glory

Flight toward the celestial, eternally sublime Leaving the finite moments of honourable climb Immortality awaits midst magnificent worship's chime Glorified body and redeemed soul, cleansed from sin grime Hoisted by the Holy Spirit, blessed saint, only by grace-prime Triumphantly surpasses clouds to enter heaven's gate in God's time. Truly, I envision myself, caught up to be with the Lord in the air* Oh, not as an eagle or an angel, but as a redeemed child of faith's care. Geared by the Saviour's compassion and mercy Loved unconditionally with everlasting life's fervency Optimizing service-opportunities along prayer-persistency Revived and restored to offer utmost best against inconsistency Yielded am I, grateful... anticipating Christ's coming of sure urgency. (Acrostic in Rhyme form) *1Thessalonians 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
