Waiting at the Gates of Heaven
sitting with my friends,
praying that the beauty of this moment never ends.
 
Waiting at the Gates of Heaven
my heart and mind at peace
as the thoughts that race around are finally released.
 
You make manifest
every wish in my heart,
You bring tears of joy
where before there was hurt.
 
You give me music, You give me worth,
You make me praise the day
You stepped upon this earth.
 
Waiting at the Gates of Heaven
Your Beauty shines so bright,
the invitation is open to all to step into Your light.
 
Waiting at the Gates of Heaven
we celebrate the day
You took Your Holy Birth to show us the Way.
 
How to offer praises
To One who is All?
How to surrender
without the fear of the fall?
 
You soothe the thoughts, You heal the pain,
You make it possible
to believe in ourselves again.
 
Waiting at the Gates of Heaven,
no need to even knock.
You opened up the door with Love and removed forever the
lock.
 
Waiting at the Gates of Heaven
hoping for a sign,
just a glimpse of One who showers us with Blessings of the Divine.
 
Waiting at the Gates of Heaven
praying now to find
She who is Eternal
waiting on the other side.
