Here, Now, Forever

The time has come, Oh unseen one,
Oh soul of mine I trust.
The unseen land past the gate of death awaits you,
as I breathe this final breath..


At this moment, I lie in pain,
at the end of a life NOT lived in vain!
Pondering that which awaits me soon,
When this heart beats no more..

I know not fear at this time now,
but glorious anticipation.
I'm going to soon find out just what exactly is our destination.

My dying heart trembles with wonderous delight,
I lay in my bed to die tonight.
The time has come, Oh unseen one!
I think we're going to be alright.

I have sent you nothing but angels, and I have placed nothing but miracles before you.
