STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN

You can hear it said quite often~
"I know Heaven Is My Home"
But no-one is in a hurry~
To begin that trip alone~ _
It's a one-way trip to Heaven~
To their Mansion that awaits~
But they can't take friends and loved ones~
With them, through those Pearly gates~
And there's something about leaving~
While their loved ones are still here~
All alone, facing that journey"~
So I guess_that is their fear~
They just want to "live" forever~
Death _is not their favorite thing~
They're "afraid" to go to Heaven~
Where the Angels always sing~

Yet I have my own opinion ~
Of what "death" will bring for me~
And I know I won't feel lonely~
All Because of "Calvary"~
Jesus promised _He'd be with me~
Said I'd never be alone~
I believe_"On Wings of Love"~
That my Lord will take me home"~
I will wear a robe of white_and then~
At last His face I'll see~
I know death is just _"A Stairway"~
To the one who died for me~
I can hardly wait_to see that~
"Holy One of Galilee"~
That has been my one desire
Since I heard He died for me~
What a thrill to touch His face~~
To hold the hands of "God's own Son"~
And I'LL cherish~That one moment~
When He says_"My Child_Well Done"~
"Death Is Nothing But A "Stairway"~
To "God's Heaven" _Up Above~
Jesus_has for me_a "mansion"~
And my "Deed "_Is Signed _"With Love"
