To My Family: By Joyce Close

TO MY FAMILY

I know the day will come when I must say goodbye
To all the ones I loved so much so please I asked don’t cry

I truly have been blessed much more than one should be
God gave this love these years to grow to be a part of me

Each one of you have found a place right from the very start
God gave each one your special place to be put there in my heart

I take this time to tell you how much I’ve loved you all
And thank my Lord for giving me this time until he calls

Do not be sad or wish me back to be again right here
My place is with my Jesus who to me is very dear

Remember please this time on earth is not a forever thing
When all our work on earth is done we will be with our Lord and King

All of us will come to him and he will take our hand
He will guide us all to our heavenly home that was promised to every man.
