Above Pale Blue
by Melissa Rives

I want to sail above pale blue,

Where visions come in every hue.

To leave behind this mortal plane,

Escaping from this earthly pain.

In a realm where astral sparkles fly,

When angels wings have passed close by.

The Milky Way left far behind,

It's Heaven's gates I aim to find.

To float above all hate and war,

Where all is peace forevermore.

No nightmares sleeping or awake,

A world where evil can't partake.

So take my hand and fly with me,

Look past this misty veil and see...

A symphony of angels sing,

And we shall dance beneath their wing.

The Son of God will light the way,

No dark-fall in eternal day.

Where love flows free from soul to soul,

And every body is made whole.

And far below us Satan cries,

Bound forever from our skies.

He denied the Father and sealed his fate,

Forever banned from Heaven's gate.
