HALL WAY
All my life I've been walking in the hall way of Eternity
All kinds of doors occupy each side of that hall way
One day I heard a voice say
“Choose this one”
It will lead you to wealth and pride
I had my hand on the door knob
Ready to walk on in
Then I heard this whispered voice
“no, no, no”
Pride is sin, and sin leads to destruction
So choose another door
Walking on a little further
down the long pathway of life
I heard a whispered voice say
“Come on in”, open this door
Love awaits you in the form of a man
He has black curly hair and eyes of brown
His smile Is like a summer day in May
He sounds too good to be true
So I touch the door knob and give it a push
A strong arm slammed it back shut
And a sweet voice says to me
“Dear Mary, what's the rush”?
So here I am walking again
years and years of walking
Finally I find a big green door with a star on the front
Now this one is different
It had my name written all over it
Right underneath the big bright golden star
It says, Mary Alice Bush Bowles
Now, I'm thinking this is truly the right door.
How could it not be? It has my name on it
I was so totally excited, my mind was in a roar
I must, I must, I must enter this door
I turned the door knob and stepped inside
I was ushered in by the sound of loud ringing bells
Someone announced my name this way
“Sir, that little girl named Mary Alice
is here, she finally chose your door”
At this point, the door behind me rattles
And is slammed shut by long spindly axes that form an X
Instantly I heard chains coming up from the floor
They completely chained my body tight in one spot
And one huge lock stuck just outside my heart strings.
I could not take another step
And without another thought, I screamed “Help”!
Immediately I knew where I was at
That place where Mammie told me to never go
In all her songs of old
“Oh Lord Help Me”, was my screaming cry..
Then I heard laughter, coming down the hallway
Then I saw him and said to him, “I cannot believe that this is you”!
His laughter got louder and he said to me
“I knew I would get you sooner or later”!
My screaming got louder too as he got closer
For his flashing red eyes were shooting devil darts all over my body
I was so scared I could not scream anymore, so I whispered, “Lord Help Me”!
Then I saw these lightening strikes coming from the ceiling
And a voice like thunders spoke my name, “ Mary Alice,
Fear Not for I Am With Thee”!
I saw the ceiling floating away and silver swords were drawn
and flashing in the Son's light....
Angel wings touched the sky, and made a circle all around me
Their Master's war cry was glistening on the tips of their swords..
I heard them clicking, “King of Kings and Lord of Lords”...
That thing from the deep turned around
tucked his tail between his legs and ran for the huge black door
As flames and smoke swallowed him up
My chains broke free and I was cuddled in shades of purple
Carried back out in the hall way of life and
A voice from the wind said,
“Climb Higher Mary Alice”.
