In Gods sweet hands I gently rest

Laying my head a place that's best

An Angel took me far into the light

A beautiful place of sheer delight

Please don't grieve we'll meet again

If the times right as God knows when

With those before me are family friends

In a beautiful place where all life ends

Just look up and always know this is true

An Angel in heaven I'm here for you

My leaving was not the very final end

Know we'll meet again on this depend

No fear no violence or war rages here

Only love and peace serene and sincere

Fear not for me grieve not once at all

Knowing you miss me are tears that fall

Move on in life and enjoy your own time

I'm safe happy here believe me I'm fine.

So long old friend until we meet again
