Someday

Someday
my spirit will rise
it will rise like an eagle
through the rays of the sunrise
beyond the moon and the stars
and into the heavens itself.
Someday
my spirit will rest
before the throne of God
and He will examine my life
as I fall prostrate before Him.
Someday
all will be revealed 
and there will be nothing
to hide.
Someday
if it were not for the 
blood of Christ
I would surely be found wanting
and would be condemned.
Someday
I will stand in faith
knowing that I am His child
and The Lord God will
usher me into His kingdom
through the pearly gates
and I will be transformed forever.
Someday
God will take my hand 
and I will let go of my former life
its blessings and its sorrows
and I will be lifted up
and my striving will cease.
Someday
I will be the person I was
truly meant to be
I will have great joy and peace
and I will be made whole

         Someday....
