How Is Heaven

Got a visit from a friend
Who must have wondered how I’d been
Out of nowhere he said hello
Then I miss you man 

There were pictures on the wall
His Smiling face and beer in hand
Just like the old times here 
And how I remembered them 
Then I asked him....how is Heaven

He said.....
I don’t understand the question 
It was then and there I knew
He had come to warn about the things
I was going thru
I heard without a word
If you plan to see the light
You gotta stay and find a way
To make things right
So you won’t question....
How is Heaven

I woke with up with a new vision
A little clearer line of sight
Like a prophet from my past
Spoke to me last tonight

Was it love or a warning
I prayed as if to say
Lord if he still wanders
May he find his way....
So he won’t question...
How is Heaven 

He said;
I don’t understand the question 
It was then and there I knew
He had come to warn about the things
I was going thru
I heard without a word
If you plan to see the light
You gotta stay and find a way
To make things right
So you won’t question....
How is Heaven

Is this his way at redemption 
Or a way to change his fate
Could his Heaven be granted
For each soul he saves....
May he find the answer....
To how is Heaven 

Got a visit from a friend
Who must have wondered how I’d been
Out of nowhere he said hello
Then I miss you man....
