When I Fly to Heaven

by adewpearl

The Monchielle Contest Winner 

When I fly to Heaven,
my God will embrace me
despite my flaws and sin.
He will open His arms
and gather me within.

When I fly to Heaven,
I will meet my mother,
who's missed me all these years,
and I will know at last
sweet freedom from my tears.

When I fly to Heaven,
I will speak with Jesus
when I am home again.
From these Fields of Glory,
you'll hear me shout Amen.

When I fly to Heaven,
I'll sing Hallelujah
with angels in the sky,
and we'll greet you gladly
when you come by and by.
