Come On
A dream I had, a vision true,
That I'm compelled to share it with you,
My life was passed, 'twas the end of fate-
I stood in line at a beautiful gate.
A pointed arch with white so clear,
It loomed above as I shuffled near,
Closer I came, anticipating great-
What would I find within the gate?
I stepped to enter that wonderful way,
I began to praise Him for this wonderful day,
But then it happened so cruel and unkind,
I found myself at the back of the line.
Again I tried, after standing long,
In a line of souls, a million strong,
I touched the steps to enter within-
And found myself in the back again.
Was this a joke, could I not enter,
Was it because I was the worst sinner?
I tried again, then tried once more.
But my poor soul couldn't pass the door.
I was in the line crying for this plight,
When by the archway I saw the Light,
I fell to knees- "Lord I don't understand"
He spoke softly as he took my hand.
"You remember the feeling, I'm sure you do,
When Mamaw held and sang to you?
Remember how safe, in arms so kind.
Your father found you, after a very long time.
You recall your tears on Mom's shoulder,
And her gentle nod at the things you told her.
There you were, safe in her her arms-
To escape from real and imagined harms.
His gental hug like a welcome home,
A greater love I've never known,
I found that Peace, not known for a while,
I no longer felt like a long lost child.
Suddenly time washes from my soul,
I became as a child , no longer old-
I rememberd then, and knew all the while,
To enter in - I must be a child.
He reached again for my hand to hold,
Then He laughed a laugh of purest gold,
Looking down with a grin so wide,
He said,
"Come on, I'll race you inside!"
