~ Please Meet Me There ~

I dreamed I searched thru heaven
Looking for a dear friend of mine
Who'd departed this life on earth
As hard as I looked, I could not find

The one who promised, to meet me there
That they would not let me down
Then I looked in that heavenly book
But their name I never found

I pondered, what did this mean?
Then it dawned on me, so suddenly
They fell short in their walk with God
And could not, keep that promise to me

I awoke relieved, from my dream
I now had the time to go see
My friend who said they'd be there
I invited them to pray with me

We both knelt down before Jesus
And repented, as we felt we should
Jesus in His love and mercy
Forgave us, as we knew He would

Now we're walking closer than ever
We always put Jesus first,
If we'd gain the whole world with it's riches,
And be lost in the end, nothing's worse
