I know that one day I shall be, <br /> In Heaven, safe, in the arms of Thee. <br /> <br /> I only pray that when my death takes place, <br /> That my family feels your love and your grace. <br /> <br /> You see, Lord, I'm not afraid to die, <br /> I will be ready when you hear my cry. <br /> <br /> So, please Dear Lord, fulfill our plan, <br /> All that I ask, is that you take my hand. <br /> <br /> I feel that the end is so very near, <br /> But, because of your promise, I have no fear. <br /> <br /> I hope my family can find happiness too, <br /> By praying for peace and contentment from you. <br /> <br /> I know, for sure, that I'll miss them all, <br /> When you take me for that final call. <br /> <br /> But, I know, that someday my family will be, <br /> Side-by-side, in Heaven, with me.<br /><br />Sharyn Harms<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/quot-goodbye-for-now-quot/
