This is a poem about heaven inspired by C.S. Lewis.
It's sweeter than honey.
It's just beyond our taste.
It's much more beautiful
Than any earthly place.

It shines so much brighter
Than the purest sunlight.
It soars far far higher
Than the very highest height.

One day we will see Him
Just as He really is,
In all His splendid glory,
Not through a mere dark lens.

There, He's ever dwelling
In unapproachable light,
In full view and yet still,
He's just beyond our sight.

He'll make us all an image
Of His beloved Son,
We'll all be pure and holy,
And then we'll all be one.

He shall in mercy clothe us
With honor and majesty.
He'll give us all new bodies
Like ones we've never seen.

Come! Run with me!
Out of the Shadowlands...
