Our friends and loved ones that we have lost from this life <br /> We may meet again someday <br /> If somewhere along the line <br /> Some of us don't go astray <br /> <br /> We should not be too quick to judge <br /> The ones that have passed on <br /> The judging should be lifted up to the man <br /> That sits upon the throne <br /> <br /> He knows all of our strengths and weaknesses <br /> Also all of our greatest fears <br /> Some of us he doesn't have to worry much about <br /> An some of us he has to hold near <br /> <br /> Like the shepherd who found he had lost one of his sheep <br /> AT the end of a long day <br /> He left the rest of his flock <br /> To find the one that had gone astray.<br /><br />Herbert H.
