I Don’t Want To Wait for Heaven
I don’t want to wait for Heaven
To make the wrong things right ~
I hate the disagreements,
Hate the slightest hint of fight.
I don’t want to carry heartaches, burdens,
There to Heaven’s door ~
Let me make amends, renew a friend,
This side of Heaven’s shore.
I don’t want to wait to ask one
To forgive some thoughtless act;
So I’ll say my "Please forgive me"
Before they even ask.
And if I am offended, then I’ll say
(Before they speak,)
That I forgive them anyway
And turn the other cheek.
I don’t have the least desire to use
A bit of Space in Heaven,
Disputing trivial differences ~
Some wrong with which I’m laden.
I just want the glorious SonShine,
And the perfect fellowship ~
So I won’t wait for Heaven but
Here and now, forgive ~ forget!
