" MY FRIEND "
There's a wonderful thing,
that money can't buy.
A blessing that's rare and true.
And that's the gift of a
"WONDERFUL FRIEND"
like the friend I have in you...
{Bradley Tyler}
"SAFELY HOME"
I am home in Heaven, dear ones;
Oh, so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting life.
All the pain is gone.
I am now at peace forever,
safely home
In Heaven at last.
Jesus himself came to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely,
For I love you dearly still:
Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's will.
There is work still waiting for you,
So you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remaineth-
You shall rest in Jesus' land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gentley call you home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come!!
