I Went to Heaven

He is Risen!  He is Risen Indeed!  Happy Easter!  What a wonderful and glorious day it is as we celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior!  This week I have been writing a song to capture some of my gratitude for Christ giving His life to me.  I am still working on it, but here is what I have so far.  It is called, “I Went to Heaven.”

“I Went to Heaven”

I dreamed I died and went to Heaven
And the angels were surprised
They scratched their heads and did a double take,
And some even rolled their eyes.

I heard St. Peter shouting
“The gate must be broke again!”
Yes, there was a lot of commotion,
When they saw me walkin’ in!

I said, “I know that you’re all thinking’
There must be something wrong.
I never was an angel
And I surely don’t belong!”

But Jesus gave His life to save me,
He forgave me of all those things!
It’s only by the Grace of Jesus
That I have earned my wings!

Jesus cleansed me and redeemed me,
He washed away my sin!
I’m only here in Heaven
Because Jesus let me in!

Yes, I dreamed I died and went to Heaven
And the angels were surprised
They scratched their heads and did a double take,
And some even rolled their eyes.

I heard St. Peter shouting
“The gate must be broke again!”
Yes, there was a lot of commotion,
When they saw me walkin’ in!

But Jesus cleansed me and redeemed me,
He washed away my sin!
I only got to Heaven
Because Jesus let me in!

I have been blessed to have served as a pastor, a chaplain and to have been involved in other ministries throughout the years. My wife Marta and I have been blessed with a wonderful family that includes our daughter, her husband and their two daughters and our son and his wife and their son. Each of them are very special to us so please keep them all in your prayers. One truth that I always try to share with people I meet is that anything God asks you to do, He will help you to do. God has your back.
