As I walked through that golden door I saw a seashore With water shimmering from the sun I knew why I had come The sand so soft between my toes I felt my eyelids close I had a vision of a familiar place That I knew long ago I smiled as I saw a familiar face Of a man I used to know He said to me "The day has come, For God has sent down His Son To rescue all of us The old earth has turned to dust." It took me a second to realize That I was under golden skies This moment I had anticipated all my life Would never cause me strife I turned to see a beautiful thing A man walking upon the shore I knew it was Jesus, my King But oh, so much more He came up to me to say Welcome my child, this is your day I fell to my knees to worship Him My Savior, my Lord, my God He had something in His hand That looked like a golden rod He raised it in the air and said "Rejoice everyone for it is the day The earth has come to an end." Then I heard the most amazing thing I heard the angels sing For then I knew the day had come The day of God and His Son Written by Shelby HOME: GRACE PLACE This poem has been read |
