Close to the sun can one conceive? The cold that exist that none can relieve Close to the sun can one believe? The darkness for those who will not receive The love of the Savior, his blood to retrieve Those destined for hell, only He could perceive The mystic too close to God's arm wrapped round Fails to surmise the Devil's scheme to keep bound Those on a course to destruction's dog pound Between heaven and hell, a deep gulf exists Which neither can fathom, what really persists? Only God can contain within his pure essence Both sides of the spectrum of life's stark lessons Heaven be heaven for those in the light And hell be hell for those in the night And the twain shall not meet, and that's only right Close to the sun no one will see The pain and the sadness of those that did flee |
