"I've touched creations beautiful and wondrous
I've been places where I question all I think I know
But I believe this could be heaven.
We are born inside the gates
with the power to create life and to take it away
The world is our temple
The world is our church
Heaven's here on earth.
If we have faith in humankind
and respect for what is earthly
and an unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding
this could be heaven here on earth.
I've seen and met angels wearing the disguise
of ordinary people leading ordinary lives
filled with love, compassion, forgiveness and sacrifice
Heaven's in our hearts.”
Heaven’s Here on Earth
