Lost and Found
"I once was lost, but now I am found" took on a whole new meaning today.
As I walked through Heaven's gates and saw angels all along the way.
This place is more beautiful than your most beautiful dream.
New colors are here that I have never seen.
There really are streets of gold and mansions many.
Fears, tears, worries, there aren't any.
When I first arrived guess what I was shown?
Every single thing I lost that I once owned.
It was like the lost and found department from all I had lost on earth.
Things were there that belonged to me from birth.
An angel showed me in an instant things I treasured as a child.
I saw when I lost each one and I began to smile.
The verse of corruptible treasures came to mind,
All that truly matters is that while on earth Jesus we find.
Many wonderful things happened as I walked along,
Choruses of angels sang the most beautiful song.
I have always wondered just how it would be,
When the face of Jesus I finally would see.
Amazing - Awesome - Breathtaking let me say,
Don't adequately describe or portray,
The face of my Savior who brought me home today.
Yes, I once was lost and gone astray.
But Jesus my Savior found me and showed me the way
To Heaven where I can now forever run and play.

Matthew 6:19-20 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth
and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither
moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.
