Time Stands Still

As I look over at the clock once more,
The hands remain as they were before.
Suddenly on this day time stands still,
Trying to move but I have no free will.

I listen for the sounds of the outdoors,
Silence is complete and hard to ignore.
What has happened just cannot be real,
Reaching down my body I cannot feel.

I clearly see someone above my head,
Familiar faces now fill me with dread.
Tears flowing down a loved ones face,
People stopping to suddenly embrace.

You never envision it will be this way,
Watching while your loved ones pray.
Absolute heavenly peace to be within,
Ready for your final journey to begin.

Voices of angels singing in harmony,
Stars shine upon a path for me to see.
An angel appears and takes my hand,
Carrying me off to the promised land.

Heaven is waiting for you and for me,
When as before our spirit will be free.
Filled completely up with God’s love,
Finally home again in paradise above.
