In a Dream

I heard an angel speak last night he said
"I am here to represent the joy that is ahead"

Standing in the entrance an angel made of stone
with wings spread as to take flight
and carry Gods chosen ones home

Walking along the Garden of souls
I ponder in my heart
the reunion that will take place
in heaven to never depart

I saw so many angels
all carved of stone
standing guard inside the gates
until He calls us home

I came across a reverant angel
down upon his knees
at the foot of Jesus cross
who died to set men free

I knelt down to at the feet of Jesus
as the tears ran down my face
I felt His presence ever near
as I thanked Him for His Saving grace

I walked on through the garden
as joy had flooded my way
all the sorrow I had felt
It  began to melt  
and my night had turned to day

The things I had forgotten
life doesn't end at the grave
it just begins as we enter in
the beautiful heavenly gates.

Everthing was going great
Life was better so it seems
It was so real I Know I was there
in my heart, and in a dream..
