This morning on my way to work, a distant tune popped in my head leaving me to guess the lyrics. Low and behold, it happened to be a song I wrote when I was nine years old! I couldn't help but smile remembering my sister and I with permed mullets and matching rosebud printed dresses. In our innocence, we sang this song at a revival meeting called "Stars and Stripes" in Kansas. We were filmed. And with a learned southern twang, not knowing that the memory of this performance would turn out to be nothing but a haunting of another life we used to live, we sang with gusto and a "love for the Lord deep in our hearts."
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you-"Glory Land."
As we walk this narrow road to Glory Land
I know our trials will be many
If we look to the Lord and keep our eyes
On heaven as we go
On that day Jesus comes to take us home
We will glorify His name
He will save our souls and make us whole
And take away all our shame
He will save our souls and make us whole
And take away all our shame
