A Father's Poem

Something my father wrote. I thought I would share it.
Blessings!

I was reading in my room last night

I thought I beheld a wonderous sight

There before me was the throne of grace

with all the saints standing in their place

There was Peter, James, John and the other disciples too

Mary and Joseph, Paul and Billy Graham, just to name a few

As their names were called they went to the throne

Some were famous and many not so well known

As each one went they had great stories to give

And some just gave their lives so others could live

They stood before Jesus and couldn't look up

They started crying and said "we just didn't do enough"

He put his arms around them and look into each ones face

He smiled and said, well done thy good and faithful servant now come into this heavenly place

I've prepared a mansion just for you

Come and enjoy with me and your loved ones too

Then ever knee bowed and everyone worshipped in their place

With the heavenly choir singing God's Amazing Grace

Come! The feast is ready let us enjoy it togther

Eat! have your fill and have fellowship with one another

As I started to rise I heard a voice behind me say

There is someone here who has been waiting to see you Ray

I turned around and through my tears

There stood Jesus with my wife and buddy of 41 years

I reached out to touch her but I snapped out of my trance

I just sat there and thanked God for giving me just a glance

Now I just can't wait for that blessed day

When Jesus will call all his saints away

That day is coming real soon!

It could be morning, night, or noon

So let us get ready, Do God's will and tell others about God's amazing grace

So Jesus can say "well done thy good and faithful servant, come step into this heavenly place."
