> ran through Heaven's gate.
> Their smiles were contagious, their laughter filled the air, They
> could hardly believe all the beauty they saw there.
> They were filled with such joy, they didn't know what to say, They
> remembered nothing of what happened earlier that day.
> "Where are we?" asked a little girl, as quiet as a mouse.
> "This is Heaven!" declared a small boy. "We are spending Christmas at God's house."
> When what to their wondering eyes did appear, but Jesus, their Savior, the children gathered near.
> He looked at them and smiled, and they smiled just the same.
> Then He opened His arms and He called them by name.
> And in that moment was joy, that only Heaven can bring, The children
> all flew into the arms of their King.
> And as they lingered in the warmth of His embrace, One small girl
> turned and looked at Jesus' face.
> And as if He could read all the questions she had, He gently whispered
> to her, "I'll take care of mom and dad."
> Then He looked down on earth,
> the world far below
> He saw all of the hurt, the sorrow, and woe.
> He closed His eyes and He outstretched His hand, "Let My power and presence re-enter this land!"
> "May this country be delivered from the hands of fools"
> "I'm taking back my nation. I'm taking back my schools!"
> Then He and the children stood up without a sound.
> "Come now my children, let me show you around."
> Excitement filled the space, some skipped and some ran.
> All displaying enthusiasm that only a small child can.
> And I heard Him proclaim as He walked out of sight, "In the midst of
> this darkness, I AM STILL THE LIGHT."
