In Memory of…

“Drift me off to sleep and go,
There’s nothing more you need to know,
I’m in His hands;
I’m safe;
I’m happy here
To wait…

Look ahead and not behind,
Down the road, I know you’ll find
Someone new
To love;
To show how life 
Is done,

I’ll look for you someday,
I’ll see your face again;
You’ll smile at me and say,
“It’s good of you to wait…”
I’ll take your hand in mine,
In that eternity of time,
And my eyes of brown 
Will meet your twinkling eyes of blue…
And I will say,
“Heaven is for real, 
Here with you…”

You might be sad and cry,
And need to wonder every why,
It won’t be long
Before it ends,
And you’ll be 
Standing strong again,

So, drift me off to sleep and know,
I’m on my way to heaven’s home,
Where every breath I take,
Is sweet with Mercy’s grace.

I’ll look for you someday,
I’ll see your face, again,
You’ll smile at me and say,
It’s good of you to wait…
I’ll take your hand in mine,
In that eternity of time,
And my eyes of brown 
Will meet your twinkling eyes of blue…
And I will say,
Heaven is for real, 
Here with you…

Beyond the veil,
And up the stairs,
Amazing Grace will lead me there,
The Grace that gave me you,
And made my dreams come true…

I’ll look for you someday,
I’ll see your face, your beautiful face;
You’ll smile at me and say,
”It’s good of you to wait.”
I’ll take your hand in mine,
In that eternity of time,
And my eyes of brown
Will meet your twinkling eyes of blue…
And I will say,
Heaven is for real
Here with you…

Yes, I will say,
Heaven is for real
Here…with you…”
