Heaven Waits

Heaven waits for me
Glistening like a summer dew
Love is gushing in my heart
Rising and expanding,
Carrying me like a river raft
I let myself fall
In this spring filled with hope
I let myself go
Of anger and fear
Shedding these shadows
I let myself love
I let myself see
The light in the clouds
Of Jesus, sweet Jesus

Only the truly insane can see
How perfectly sensible His call is
Softly he sings for me,
Sweet like a melon's flesh
I shiver with pleasure
At the thought of my God
Holding me close
To the warmth of His heart
So I hold onto this rope
It's golden and warm
And if I keep my promises
And make up for
The ones I break
I will make it up the ladder
To a place where light abounds
And hearts may heal in a single moment;
Oh Jesus, please come for me!
