We had a terrible and beautiful thunderstorm earlier today...,
....as I watched it and heard it pass by I was awed by the power of it, ....and I wondered if those up in Heaven could hear it, too.
And I wonder sometimes
If you hear the thunder up in heaven
As it passes by my window
On it's way to your door
Do you see the streaks of lightening
That stretch across my sky
As you walk the floor of heaven
Do you stop to watch and listen
Do the birds outside my window
Sing the songs of heaven here
A beautiful chorus of melodies
Reaching discerning pairs of ears
Is the wind on my face
The same one that stirs for you
On your streets of gold and honey
An unfolding breath of heaven
Carrying words for us to hear
And I wonder sometimes
If you hear the thunder up in heaven
As it passes by my window
On it's way to your door
Do you see the streaks of lightening
That stretch across my sky
As you walk the floor of heaven
Do you stop to watch and listen
And does the sun shine for you
Each and every moment
Is that where it goes
When it leaves my sight
Leaving me with only
This pale moonshine at night
Do you laugh at my questions
On the other side of heaven now
Where you have all the answers
We want to know in time
Is it all so simple to understand
In Heaven tonight
And I wonder sometimes
If you hear the thunder up in heaven
As it passes by my window
On it's way to your door
Do you see the streaks of lightening
That stretch across my sky
As you walk the floor of heaven
Do you stop to watch and listen
