A Place Called "There"

I KNOW A PLACE WHERE I WANT TO GO
IT’S THE WONDERFUL PLACE CALLED “THERE”
A PLACE MOST PEOPLE SEARCH FOR
WHOSE JOYS THEY SO SELDOMLY SHARE

“THERE’S” NOT FOUND ON ANY MAP
FOR IT’S DEEP IN YOUR HEART AND MIND
DEPENDING ON YOUR POINT OF VIEW
DETERMINES JUST WHAT YOU WILL FIND

YOU CAN FIND IT IN SO MANY WAYS
SUCH AS FULFILLING A LIFELONG DREAM
THE UNITING OF TWO SOULS AS ONE
A NEWBORN, SLAP, HEALTHY SCREAM

THE FIRST STEPS IN YOUR DREAM HOME
COMFORTS OF YOUR CLOSEST FRIENDS
THE GENTLENESS OF A WARM EMBRACE
THOSE TIMES WITH GOD THAT YOU SPEND

HUMBLING YOURSELF BEFORE THE LORD
WANTING SO DESPERATELY TO SHARE
HE ANSWERS WITH HIS STILL SMALL VOICE
AND SUDDENLY YOU KNOW YOU ARE “THERE”
