I saw the light of heaven
As Jesus took my hand
And gently came and brought me
To heaven’s perfect land.
He led me ‘cross the Jordan,
Then through the pearly gates:
“Now welcome home, my daughter,
Come see what joy awaits!”
“Well done” is what He told me
And gave a radiant crown;
He’d seen my love and worship
And wrote my service down.
I’ve hardly looked around yet
For I’m with Jesus here
To worship and adore Him
With friends and loved ones dear.
No sin can taint the pleasure,
No pain can mar the bliss,
For all is good and holy
In such a home as this.
You won’t be far behind me:
Trust Jesus – He’s the way;
Prepare to come and join me
In heaven’s endless day.

So beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes. I can picture mom standing there with a huge smile on her face reaching out for Gods hand Thank you so much for writing this for my mother. God is great
Thank you, John. I’m thankful for your mom – what a special lady! How she must be enjoying being in the presence of the Lord, reuniting with loved ones, and enjoying how beautiful everything is there.
Beautiful poem! I look forward to that day!
Beautiful poem
I thought I was anxious before
It was almost like you had been there
I am so anxious for that day
