Through my closed eyes, I imagine I see
A splendid arena just waiting for me
With bales of the rainbow in showers so bold
That light up the firmament in colors of gold
Clear crystal waters and fountains of silver
Great springs that burst forth in streamlets that shimmer
Music emerging from harp strings that quaver
Pearls of all colors and diamonds for ever
Set in a background of torrents of gold
The heavenly choir’s been singing of old
Words fail to capture a picture so perfect
Words cannot alter its all dazzling effect
Then my eyes open and what to behold
A lightening that flashes like what we were told
Across the great sky from the east to the west
And all in a twinkle He gathers the best
Suddenly, swiftly, I feel myself lifting
Upwards, rapidly, being changed instantly
An apparel, dazzling, its brightness so puzzling
His face like the sun’s strength, the one that
was God sent
And then, then I see
What He prepared for me,
A delightful vision
Beauty beyond Imagination.
