I saw the light, it was right in front of me
When I looked around everything else was dark
It was like I was in a long dark tunnel
Someone said something but it was too soft to hear
But it sounded like ... don't be afraid, come near
I took a couple steps forward
And then I could see
Outlines of people
There in front of me
I couldn't make out who they were
It was like there was fog all around
Other than my own heart beating
I couldn't hear a sound
When I finally got the nerve to speak
I asked where am I
No one answered at first
Then I heard a soft cry
Again in a voice
I could barely hear
Someone said welcome my child
Won't you come near
I took another step forward
And then I could see
The voices were my loved one
Who had gone on before me
At that point I felt the purest love
It radiated all around me
I felt I was finally home
Where I always wanted to be
But then I heard a different voice
It was booming loud and clear
Step back my child its not time
For you to live up here
There's a lot thats left for you to do
Soon I will reveal
The plans I have for everyone
Who wishes to do my will
When I came to I had this peace
And knowing in my heart
That loved one's who had gone before
We had never been apart
They really were at peaceful rest
In a land beyond the stars
And one day I would join them
peaceful rest would be ours
But until that time I'm no longer sad
About the loved one's I have lost
Because where they are is so much better
And it is well worth the cost
I now look forward to the day
I'll join them in the air
A new life to live eternal
When we arrive up there
