If Heaven Is Real

We hear all the talk, the beauties of glory
The Bible speaks and tells its own story.
There’s a place up there, no toil or strife.
However, the church, can forget of that life,
If the presence of God, shines as the sun,
The singing so sweet, includes everyone.
If heaven is real, then a question I’ll cast.
Why so much focus on a life that won’t last?
We build our mansions here on this earth,
We must have forgotten, how little it’s worth.
We look at our stuff, and say that we’re blessed,
Forgetting that soon, it will burn with the rest.
Treasures are worthy, of that we agree.
But lay them in heaven where forever they’ll be.
Would we lose our life, for the good Lord’s sake?
Then eternity we’d gain, and heaven partake.
Or love our life, which the Bible is clear
We’d lose our chance, at heaven so dear.
If heaven is real, we must be confused
For it seems it’s this life, that has us amused.
If heaven awaits, and we know there we’d go,
Then why do we fear when death gives its blow?
When the next life is heaven, eternity with Him,
Then death is the beginning, so why is it grim?
Our life’s but a vapor, the Good Book conveys.
Let’s reason with wisdom and change our gaze.
