This was a complete shock to my system.
I wasn’t ready to leave my family, I wasn’t ready to leave my friends.
It was way too soon for me to leave, and It was way too early for my eyes to close.
I wasn’t tired, I wasn’t sick, I wasn’t ready to give up yet.
I see your faces, I see those tears, I laugh at those stories that you share so dear.
I am the beam of light shining high above you,
I am your reflection when you look in the mirror.
Before you close your eyes to pray, sleep peacefully with my love inside.
Look up to the stars and see me shine.
I am way beyond that better place, I am high above where life continues.
God’s promised will has been officially done,
I have transitioned to a beautiful place!
Don’t be so angry, don’t stay sad, don’t shelter yourself from God’s great love.
Most of all you have to forgive, not for my sake I’ m doing just fine.
Not for your sake because you’ll see me again.
But for the sake of him that took me away, forgiveness will keep you close to
me.
Forgiveness will bring you out of your agony.
It may take some time for you to heal, but rest assured I am always near.
It’s incomprehensible the beauty I see, before me here on this other side of life.
It’s the very thing we’ve all talked about, to go to heaven and meet the Lord.
My life on earth may be over now, but my eternal life has just begun.
What can I say I am with the King, it may be incomprehensible to you right
now as to why I had to leave so soon.
My mission on earth has been fulfilled, I have crossed the mighty
River of Jordan.
I have crossed my path of least resistance.
I have won a battle that you thought I’d lost.
Family of mine I love you deeply, I won all the innings,
but I fumbled this quarter. Yet I’ve tackled the enemy
who thought he was worth, the life he stole in a cowardly way.
I’ve won the ultimate round of life and Glory to God I have taken my place!
It’s incomprehensible that life is so short, but family and friends I’ll see you again.
You’ve seen how bright the sun can shine, you’ve seen how big the moon can be covering the earth abundantly.
It’s incomprehensible how things just happen,
but our God remains in total control. My victory was won
a long time ago, I am just now getting MY crown of gold.
God is truly amazing y’all, just know that my help came from the Lord.
It was just my time to seek my place and embrace the tenderness of his wondrous embrace.
