Analysis of As I Visualize
Sometimes I often wonder
about our heavenly King
and wonder what it would be like
to hear his angels sing
I look up into heaven
and try to visualize
the city trimmed in gold,
the mansion in the sky.
All around the kingdom
there is a heavenly light
that outshines the city
and makes the kingdom bright.
I can almost feel the warmth of God
and the love that He does share.
I can almost see His face
as I am looking up there,
and feel His loving arms
as He reaches out to me,
and the safeness that I feel
as He embraces me.
