home

I shed a tear,
A loved one gone from us.
But she knew the truth,
Dancing now with her Saviour.

Death, sickness, fear,
Terrors to the heart.
One step of dread from life into a lightless unknown,
Of leaving behind all that is familiar.

Death, sickness, fear,
Pretenders to the heart.
For there is only One who knows what is beyond,
Who has been through the veil and back,
To lead us on our own journey.

And even through the tears, I know
One day I too must pass through the door.
Where I will meet all those gone before,
And find Him who went all the way.
Where I will shed my final tears,
Not of sorrow but of joy,
For that will be my home.

In Memory
