A Heavenly Home
Elizabeth H Grant Price 1951 (Lynn, MA)
A Heavenly Home
By: Elizabeth H Grant Price
I've always wondered heavens home,
Into my glad heart, where it has dwelt,
All the gentleness and tender brilliance,
Of Gods gift, a wondrous beauty
A sun my light of warmth, brilliantly shines,
Bouquet of stars, my relatives, my friends,
A moon my glowing night light, an altar lit,
I snuggle soft fluffy clouds, my life of ease,
Maybe Gods white satin rug to glide upon
In the sky of deepest blue, searching for God,
Does he stand tall all dressed in white,
Encircled by all his majesty angels
I wonder if I will be winging the skies,
In beauty, startling to the world,
Where dainty angels take flight
I wonder if I could just see an elation,
Of such beauty that would so subtly,
Stir my heart, this heavenly place
Ah, my divine home in pure perfection,
I perceive instantly God's reflection
Out from this heavenly home
