Don’t spend too much time in Mourning.
Tears are for the sad.
I left to be with Jesus
and this should make you glad.
Don’t waste your hours in grieving.
No need to feel distress.
I’m tired of life’s frustrations,
and had to get some rest.
Don’t vex yourself with questions,
or try to reason why.
Life here for me has ended.
It came my time to die.
Don’t lose the love I gave you.
Feed it with your care.
Grow it with your devotion.
And spread it everywhere.
Don’t fret because my leaving
comes in such a way.
We’ll have other meetings
in God’s eternal day.
