“The Heavenly Gate”, a worship poem from L.Willows (Called, God’s Glory, God’s Love)

The Heavenly Gate

I have seen a place where we all rise…
God’s symphony lifts clouds in a dance to the skies.
All of the heavens are opened at His Gate,
there in the roam of a Paradise state.

Kept by a sweetness, I felt someone near-
all of life’s friendships, everyone dear.
Touched by all heart songs, there I could dance
drawn like a bird who could fly into the expanse.

Here in the midst of All Love, I was called
into the blushing of winds that worshiped, enthralled.
Stepping out from all that keeps us astray
the Threshold had beckoned and swept me away.

There were no tears or burdens in this quiet place bright.
Sunshine of warmth beckoned all towards The Light.
I cast off one shoe, then the other, then Free!
Soon I was dancing with another like me.

I remember the Motion that swept through me there
cast from some other; as wind through reed’s prayer.
This, in holy, roam at God’s heavenly Gate
I danced, mingled with the winds in sweet moments elate.

Revelation 21:4He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.

Matthew 7:13-14 -Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

“Eternity’s Breath”, from L.Willows (Glory of God, Holiness, See Jesus)

When our hearts see Jesus
We behold Love’s Root.
All of our forever’s
wrap around in salute.

Here is our Beginning,
the One that stood with
Father and Spirit
in Eternity’s breath.

Fathom the futures
that gaze from that Love,
extending embrace,
in the gift of His grace.

Holiness tendered
here for receiving-
Letting, love’s setting,
parted for such needing.

Thirst, we do thirst
and long to come home.
Rain full Lord’s Spirit,
refresh our hearts roam.

Lord, we walk towards you,
journeying still.
As we see Jesus,
the Way fills with Love’s till.

Lord, in abundance with the Glory you fill.
Generous Giver, receive us Until.

John 1:14 —And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

John 8:12 —Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

John 17:22 —The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one.

“Holy Moments from Heaven”, a worship poem from L. Willows

a13715988_1747332822179919_703671116264867973_nWe will see Jesus, in the hour near.
Love lets the door press apart, banning all fear.
All kindred hearts will fill with deep sweetened air,
and breathe with the Touch that His Spirit does bear.

Oh such Holy moments from Heaven above,
will hasten our heartbeats with the flood of His Love.
Here do we join in full hope, faith and prayer…
Lost and then found in the gain of God’s Dare.

Calling the Glory of the Kingdom Declared,
Lives speak the Word of His Own unimpaired.
Blessed are the these Hearts with the Holy Beloved One,
We see Jesus today – Our Christ, The Lord’s Son.
