3) Lost In Paradise (revised)
Entered through a wooden door,
Holy blood covered the outside
Holy blood covered the outside
Renewed was each part of me,
A halt upon every cry.
Suddenly enraptured by a song,
Which played among the angel's voice.
No word in the dictionary to describe -
The reward for my faithful choice.
Diminished was the acknowledgment
Over the world's possessions and worth...
As I stood in awe of each color -
Undeveloped on the earth.
My Finger tipped upon a rose-
Whose stem never urged the rain.
In worship, the mass spoke -
Of the holiness in God's name.
I was Lost on earth but found,
I now stood in front of Christ...
My eternity has begun...
Now lost in paradise.
