Poems

Heavenly Dwelling
Poor me, I live just in a tent
And groan for so much more.
I'm promised a heavenly dwelling.
Of this, I can be sure.

I only want to wander here;
A pilgrim, a little while.
This poor old body of earth
Is only for a trial.

Soon, I can lay it down to rest;
Done with it's purpose here.
Just, to give me eternal life,
Slip me into God's top gear.

I can see me flying, then,
Zooming up into the sky.
I'm going be with Jesus
Soon, or when I die.

You see, it says in Titus three,
By grace I am washed clean.
I'm an heir of eternal life,
In the city where Jesus gleams.
