Safely Home

I am home in heaven, dear ones;
Oh so happy and so bright
This is perfect joy and beauty!
In this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace for ever,
Safely home in heaven at last.

Did you wonder I so calmy
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh, but Jesus' love illumined
Every dark and fearful glade.

And He came Himself 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 death'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 remainth
You shall rest in Jesus land.

When that work is all completed.
He will gently call you Home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting.
Oh, the joy to see you come.

We all love you ma!
