A Slice of Heaven
Is when we run in joy
To reach our very own
Mount Zion on earth at Mass.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we offer our very self
The way Jesus did for us
In place of grain offerings and animal sacrifices.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we appreciate the creation
Of the marvelous nature
That God designed all for us.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we have at all times
The greatest treasure ever found
In Jesus Christ at every Eucharist.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we walk in faith and surety
That the Lord walks along with us
His army of Angels following us all around.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we know Jesus is present
In every breath and beat of ours
His Spirit forte and dominant always.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we touch the lives of others
With the electrifying red hot love we give
Having received the same from Heaven's pulpit.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we retain the same flavour
Of the grace we received in Baptism
To be a perennial nourishment for our souls.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when we behold in the eyes 
Of those who are the most  closest to us
The Love that is an exact  image of God's own love.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when every work completed
Both in good time and form
Happens when we invoke the name of God over it.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when the Heart makes a comeback 
To walk on the Steps of Years and Moments
Fulfil God's given love mission on earth.

A Slice of Heaven
Is when the Bells toll with a mighty force
The Trumpets sound with a lifting power
Music floats all the way up to the sky
As we adore the King of Heaven
Who is the Biggest Slice to our Eternal Life.
