His Promise

And as I opened up the door The sight which met my blood-shot eyes A sight I'd never seen before I was struck dumb and hypnotized Colors flashing Spirits passing All before my cold and glassy eyes As I walked through the open door I witnessed sights I'd never seen Cosmic ships afire on distant shore Places I had never been Lightning flashing Spirits dancing All before my cold and glassy eyes As I stepped beyond the open door I saw lands of promising Experience of evermore Just where He said that they would be Colors flashing Spirits passing All before my cold and glassy eyes And as the door closed from behind I stood there on the opposite side Lost in thought inside my mind But was I ready for the ride Lightning flashing Spirits dancing All before my cold and glassy eyes I took a walk there out of time To a land that time forgot There was no reason or no rhyme I finally found there what I'd sought Colors flashing Spirits passing All before my cold and glassy eyes A brave new world He promised me All the wonders I would see A land of life, love and beauty All together and complete Lightning flashing Spirits dancing All before my cold and glassy eyes
