Flung Into the Purgatory-
Heaven
I awoke and was flung into the purgatory
The obscurity smiled
It threw its ghost against the days
Yet descending onto the surface
My Jesus
He said come unto me
Rise out of this pit of hell
Be free, repent one last chance
Be renewed be birth again
I shall raise you up
Out of the fire
Raise you up
Out of this domain
Raise you up
Out of your sins
Come unto my darling
Heaven awaits
Heavens for you
Heaven just a breath away
I awoke and flung the heavens gates
The obscurity smiled
It threw its ghost against the days
I crave the hundred thousand, heavenward heap
Take thy age from out my heart
Suddenly, I heard some spotlighting
Peering and peering with my gloom was shamed now I have a room
Suddenly, I heard some desponding
And so I screamed, 'Is that a lark?'
I crave the sunnier, shady sunset
there stood a divine trademark
My Jesus
He said come unto me
Rise out of this pit of hell
Be free, repent one last chance
Be renewed be birth again
I shall raise you up
Out of the fire
Raise you up
Out of this domain
Raise you up
Out of your sins
Come unto my darling
Heaven awaits
Heavens for you
Heaven just a breath away
