'HEAVEN'S SWEETEST GAIN'
 


Now I lay me down to sleep

but for my soul, please do not weep ~

For Earth was ne'er my final choice

God sent for me, I obeyed His voice.



His angels gently closed my eyes

for I was weary, please realize ~

'Sleep now, it's time for you to rest'

I heard God say, 'Child, I know what's best'



'Fret not for those who must remain

I'll dry their tears and heal their pain ~

'Very soon I'll cause them to see

you're Home at last in Heav'n with me'.



'Your trials have ended now, dear one

each earthly battle has been won ~

there'll be no heartache, pain nor tear

Welcome Home, my child, so dear' !



So please don't weep too long

for me, dear ones we'll be reunited ~

wait & see, rejoicing together on

Heav'n's shore where we'll reside

FOREVERMORE !



May your hearts be somewhat comforted

during this time of deepest pain ~

to know this loss you suffer now

is 'HEAVEN'S SWEETEST GAIN' !!!
