On the distant horizon it has dimly shone
Heaven – is it your goal, alone,
Or have you talked to Him via “telephone”
Have you prayed un-uttered words – a groan?
Do you want to see Him face to face,
Who on Mount Calvary hung in your place?
Heaven without Him is a selfish goal.
Christ is the true attraction of the tempered soul.

I like the poem..but must admit…I find it hard to think of Christ as an “attraction”…but I live out here there’s a Disneyland…so it may color my interpretation of that word.
