SOMEWHERE BEYOND THE SEA
"BEYOND THE SEA"
* * *
There is a magical stairway
that spirals up through the sky;
it winds it's way where angels stay
to mighty God on high!
----------------------------------
Across the mystic sea I view
each step a golden glare;
far into a world of blue,
I long to make it there;
to yond horizon's secret realm
my yearning heart explores;
like captains at their guiding helm
in search for safer shores.
Where, God upon the throne He rests
with Jesus by His side;
where I'll receive eternal bliss
that only they provide.
So there beyond the ocean's roar,
this gateway beckons me...
up to heaven's open door
where every soul is free.
----------------------------------------
The trail is rocky I surmise,
but I shall carry on..
until I reach my paradise,
my everlasting home!
