I'll Meet You At The Gate

When I get to heaven I hope that I can see You standing there by the gates Waiting just for me You'll already have your wings Mine I'll have to earn I know it will take time For there are lessons I must learn I must learn to be more patient And to be more understanding But what I must learn most of all I can no longer be demanding It's so much different here in heaven Then it was back on earth On earth we all had an expiration date Starting from the day of our birth Now when that date would come Only God was the one to know We just lived from day to day Until it was time to go When that day did finally arrived The journey was short and fast If there's one thing we learned on earth It was that nothing seemed to last 11-1-17/RjH
