Renewed Spirit

As I laid in my hospital bed
My mind did stir
I saw angels above me
Whispering “what shall happen with her?”

I never felt more calm
Never such a sense of peace
The angels above me
Set my soul at ease

They beckoned me forward
For which I did follow
This bright light they shone me
Was a tunnel sort of hollow

I wasn’t scared, not even a bit
I was the happiest I’ve ever been
Then at the end of this bright light
Shone just at the lights rim

There it was and I was right there
Standing proudly at Heaven’s Gate
Knowing in my heart I had done well in life
For this to be my resting fate

As I stood at the entrance
My heart felt so light
I knew that very moment
That everything was right

I took to my new home
Like I’d been there my whole life
With a new renewed spirit
Without pain or strife

Now I shall be honored
To join in the ranks
As the angels before me
And for that I give thanks

I give my life to God
As I did there on Earth
For living in God’s light
Can truly sum your worth
