Heaven is the decision I must make.

You think you have alternatives
But these are just superlatives --
Those opposites you choose between
Are all the same when finally seen.

There's no striation
In God's creation --
His Kingdom will come
When we see we're One.

In your conflicting roles
You see conflicting goals --
You seek earthly gain,
But hold it in disdain.

We hear a thousand voices
Giving us a thousand choices,
But they are all One.
The time of conflict is done --
Let in God's Sun --
We may as well have fun--
Our real choice is none --
Heaven has won.

We think we're learning
While the world is burning,
But since truth is true,
It's the only choice for you.

We will never rest
Till we put it to the test --
Clearly one is best --
In this you must invest.

To free your body, bind it.
Lose your life to find it.
Ending separation
Will end your frustration.
Give it all it's worth:
This is your Heaven on earth.

Stop your resistance
To the truth of existence,
Or false truth will appear
And give you new fear.

Heaven is the gift you must take;
Heaven is the choice you must make,
But truth you must never forsake --
You're safe in God's Arms, now awake!
