Out On High

I have run out of high
  
       I begin to crawl
  the bottom was my destination
     it was what I desired 
    as it was common to man
      for it I prepared

       of it I now let go
  
      Set free of death
       It has no wings
      Where I am headed it cannot follow

        Celestial Clydesdales gallop hard into the distance
              in fertile space
     Where the light of stars has yet to shine
              in space untilled
         where darkness has no purpose
            they prepare the way
      they are the essence of the unknown

 there in the secret place where there are no secrets
            there am I fully known 
 
   It is here where the armor of God was made 
         deep in the womb on creation
    where time knows no beginning and has no end

    in the court of endurance shall I watch
       prayers as they turn into praises 
       praises as they turn into worship
        worship as it turns into grace
 
              I run out on high 
       Here now in the mist of eternity 
                   I wait
               adorned in grace
                     encircled by mercy
    With my God 
                  For my God
                          From now
          Till the day after forever
