How Does the Soul Enter Heaven

When my time on this earth is through, After the Autumn of my life has gone And, death comes to me – I’ll walk on Into heaven, where there is love anew When this world is in the past, forever comes After the light burns into my heart, my soul And, I’m with the One who makes me whole As heaven smiles its joy and grace welcomes When nothing in this life can mean so much After the wonder of His light inspires my love And, faith knows it was right to wait for truelove There in heaven’s glow, trembling from His touch When life on earth is past and I see Him at last After all my dreams and wishes have come true And, I know what it means to know, see through The dark into the spirit of One who is steadfast When everything in this life means nothing at all After the beauty of heaven sings me into His peace And, the music is filled with forever that won’t cease So, there I abide where there is never a nightfall When my season on this planet has been fulfilled After the spirit inside me knows real contentment And, inside my soul there is no hatred or resentment Because, with Him I know real love so I’m thrilled When all the past can no longer haunt me with fears After this struggle with darkness is flung to the stars And, someone on earth might offer my life’s memoirs I’ll know the meaning of love that wipes away my tears How Does The Soul Enter Heaven?
