This world, however beautiful

was never meant to be

The place that we would call

our home for all eternity.

to leave, a loving God knows best.

And in His time He lifts us

to a place of peace and rest.

So when at last I say good-bye,

Don’t let your tears keep falling.

For when my time has come.

I’ll hear my Savior sweetly calling.

And as He takes my hand.

All pain and cares will disappear.

And He will gently whisper.
