Above the Clouds

A Glimpse of Heaven's Glory

Imagine a place, beyond sunset’s glow,
Where colors in harmony perfectly flow.
A haven of beauty, warm and serene,
More welcoming than any home you've ever seen.

Streets made of gold, so pure and so bright,
Sparkling like the ocean, in the beautiful sunlight.
God's love shines, no need for the sun,
In Heaven, His light, the only one.


Gardens more vibrant than any you know,
With flowers blooming in colors that glow.
A crystal river flows gently through,
Giving life to all, pure and true.


A tree beside it, with fresh fruit to consume,
Overflowing with abundance, like the sweetest perfume.
No tears, no fears, every sin washed away,
In God’s light and love, forever we’ll stay.


Laughter like music, heard everywhere,
Kindness and happiness fill the air.
The best day ever, but even more,
In Heaven, pure joy, ignites the core.


God and Jesus, in their presence we stay,
Their love and peace, guiding our way.
A comforting hug that never ends,
In Heaven, our hearts, forever transcend.


Reunited at last, with those we've missed,
Every hello is sealed with a kiss.
No more goodbyes, only delight,
In Heaven, everything feels right.


For those who mourn and feel the pain,
Know that in Heaven, there's no more strain.
Isaiah speaks of tears wiped away,
No sorrow, no death, no more dismay.


Jesus tells us of rooms, he’s gone and prepared,
Our citizenship in Heaven, nothing compares.
God’s promise is true, His word divine,
A place of hope, where His love will shine.


So, look to the stars, watch every sunrise,
There’s a beautiful place beyond our skies.
A home that God promised, on this truth we stand,
Heaven awaits, by His loving hand.


Heaven’s radiant promise, shining so bright,
Where day never ends and banishes night.
A place of pure love, beauty and grace,
In Heaven we find, our eternal place.
​

"In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."—John 14:2-3
