When the show on earth is over and the master says
“time to go the angels here in heaven are waiting for
your show” we must go on as he beckons, we must
quickly crouch and fl y for he knows our show is needed
for children in the sky.
Yes there’ll be carnivals in heaven, with bright lights
and fun galore, and the organ will sound sweeter like
you’ve ever heard before. There’ll be Eli wheels and
scramblers merry-go rounds for wee ones too God,
himself, the supervisor, and we carny folk the crew.
The angels on the “jinny” ride playing music pure and
sweet for the cherubs on the horses galloping round
on wooden feet, there’ll be popcorn and cotton candy,
with just a deeper pink, perhaps a little sweeter since
it’s made in heaven don’t you think.
The “jump” from earth to heaven will be the greatest
one of all, without a single breakdown, with no truck
motor to stall, so let’s make the show a good one,
while here on earth we dwell so when we set up in
heaven God will say
“A JOB DONE WELL”
