Can You Imagine

[majorgen]

Can you imagine what Heaven is like,​

With its' Pearly Gates and streets of gold?​

As you stand waiting before the Book of Life​

An angel speaks and you are told.​

​

"Enter in, oh servant of the Lord,​

He's prepared a room for you."​

And the distant sounds of singing praise,​

Draws you near and you worship too.​

​

Can you imagine the Holy One,​

Who dwelt in your heart and longed to see?​

There before His throne, your Redeemer, your Saviour​

The Lamb of God who set you free.​

​

Could you feel His holy presence?​

Would you in fear humbly bow?​

Or rejoice in jubilation.​

Would you dance before Him somehow?​

​

Now is the time to get ready,​

Not knowing when you leave this earth.​

Receive His forgiveness, ask Him into your heart​

And experience the joy of rebirth.​

This far surpasses my skills. How long did the poem take to make?

Hi Pathfinder - Thank you for your response. The Lord gives me something to think about so I start with this. Sometimes He gives me just the title, or sometimes He gives me a few lines to start. It's a gift He gave me and I'm trying to be sensitive to the Spirit to write these poems. I would say from start to finish and getting all the mistakes out, about 2 to 3 weeks. Harder poems would take me a month before it's finished. I hope you enjoy it.

hey, thats really cool! great imagery, the speech is utterly beliveable, and the underlying and ultimate message is one we could all ponder. 10/10!
