My Friend, My Love

And now I must leave you my friend, my love,
And go to that special place that is beyond and above 

Where there is no pain, no darkened night,
Only soft warm days and sun drenched meadows bright

I had to go my friend I’m sorry, I could not wait,
Please remember me as I was, not in those days of late 

Think not less of me because I went ahead,
For it was by God’s hand that I was led 

Each life’s time and work by Him are defined,
And, I’m so pleased to have shared your life with mine 

Our paths will join again I’m sure - one day in time,
Then our souls will share the Lord’s blessed eternity divine 

Please smile for me this day - my friend, my love,
And know that I wait for you in His blessed home above
