Poems

Waiting
This is why I wait
Upon a distant shore.
I know that You will come for me.
Of this I can be sure.

No matter what may come my way,
All that life will bring to me
Is to prepare me for Your coming
That I so long to see.

My heart, then, rests secure
In Your abundant love.
I need not fear tomorrows.
For, you are waiting, just above.

When God says, "Now is the time,"
You will swiftly mount the day;
Riding on the winds of dawn,
To carry me away.

So, I will have my heart all ready,
Packed with all that's light.
Nothing, on earth, will hold me back
From heaven's eternal flight.
