IT SEEMS SO NEAR AND SOMETIMES SO FAR

IN MY MIND, THIS PIECE OF HEAVEN,

AND THIS JOURNEY WILL END SO SOON

WITH THE ENDING DAYS.



IN MY MIND IS A SINGLE PATH THROUGH,

A HUSHED AND GLOWING PLACE,

WITH WALLS SO SHEER OF ALABASTER AND

WALKS EVERYWHERE OF GLORY AND GOLD.



AND SO NEAR, SO NEAR TO THIS PLACE

IN MY MIND, OF HEAVEN,

MY PROGRESS IS OFTEN SO SLOW AND HARD,

AND MY VICTORIES ARE HERE, SO SMALL AND FEW.



BUT HERE I'AM STILL, SO NEAR AND SO FAR AWAY,

TO THIS PLACE OF HEAVEN,

AND WHEN WHISTLES BLOW,WITH THEIR CLAMOROUS HUES,

BEYOND THIS PLACE, NO MORE WILL BE SIN OR TEARS.



FOR HERE PERFECTION RULES THE PLACE,

AND LOVE FOR LOVE IS ALWAYS TRUE AND CLEAN,

AND IN MY MIND I LIVE THERE SO CLOSE,

AND SOMETIMES IT SEEMS SO FAR AWAY



TO THIS PLACE LIKE HEAVEN.
