rest to come

i saw a ray of light, pierce the broken dream, of my mental stream
its pure white streak, its utter straight, shaft no bend, brought me full awake
i did not slip, strong hands did lift, did keep me straight, to stand upon its line
the earth it shook, with me it took, to sway and knees made bend
with shout of help, my heart grew faint, upon the top of clouds, i saw
a myriad strong, of countless forms, ablaze with same of light
as war it broke, outright it tight, made my chest to groan
my trembling's plight, of nil effect, my frozen state, heart's regurgitate, 
my loves and hate, both did slip, did burst as weight, plunged below my gaze
when sudden force, with quick uplift, found me in the air
the speed of twinkling eye, was surpassed, to find me in the clouds
bathed with joy, most profound, spun with words of thought, 
no hesitate, words of trumpet burst, sound unchecked burst from countless lips
the golden time, full sublime is come, enter in, wait awhile, drink this holy cup
in freedom breathe, no mass of weight, no pull of earthen heat
no hate to keep, no words of death, nor threat of hurt, will not feel again
your bottled tears, stored away will yield, in chambers made for you, 
in all direction's way, stretch far away, wait a little while, 
in forever distance, without holds, 'cept high above the air,
'til indignation be overpast, rest as a little child
he will wipe, all those tears, gently off your face
eye has not seen, ears have not heart, nor entered in the heart of man
to know the things, God has in store, for those who really love him
