I never saw, above the billowing clouds.
I never glimpsed those pearly gates.
Yet, I know the Lord is my savior
and that heaven for me, awaits.
I never doubted that there is a God.
Nor would I question His plans.
He is my creator and my salvation.
The Lord holds my soul in His hands.
When I am called one day by my maker,
to His Kingdom up yonder in the sky.
Saint Peter will smile as he greets me.
And on silver wings, I shall fly ~
