"Going Home"
It seems that more frequently now days the saints are going home.
One by one they pass away as friends and family moan.
It's hard to think the ones we love will go away in time.
But every one of us some day must leave this world behind.
They brought us joy and gave us love that only they could give.
Finding strength to face each day in knowing Jesus lives.
They're gone, but we have hope in God's word just as they did.
Mark 12:27 says he is God of the living not the dead.
So they're not dead, they are still alive. In fact they're doing just fine.
No more hurt, no more pain and no more troubles in mind.
Yes they're all right and in good company too with the saints who've gone before.
Willing rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.
So don't be discouraged. Fill the hole in your heart with this hope only God can
provide...
That we see them again if we live as they live so we are not left behind.
Written 06/09/05 in remembrance of Elder Wilbert Miller and all our loved ones going home.
