If God Made Me Immortal

If God Made Me Immortal By Rick Rucker If God offered to make me immortal, so that I would ever be, I would say “No thanks,” if I could not forever see, The vision of the Angel that has saved me from the Fire, She reached down into it, and put my Suffering on the pyre, She took this old carcass, and made it feel young once again, She has made me feel like a Giant among men! She has healed my Soul, and set my Spirit free, And gently holding Her is how I always want to be! Living until Forever would not be Heaven without my Love, Just the thought of it, sounds like Hell above! I would much prefer to have a normal life, With this Angel that has agreed to be my Wife! When my time to pass comes up, I will be happy, don’t you see? I know that soon, together, we will always be! If Heaven is for Lovers, then our place is ready there, You will see us running, holding hands, without a care!
