My Dearest Friend Is In Heaven

         I am home in Heaven, dear ones;  Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty   In this everlasting light.   All the pain and grief is over,   Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever,   Safely home in Heaven at last.   Did you wonder I so calmly   Trod the valley of the shade? Oh! but Jesus' love illumined   Every dark and fearful glade.   And He came Himself to meet me   In that way so hard to tread; And with Jesus' arm to lean on,   Could I have one doubt or dread?   Then you must not grieve so sorely,   For I love you dearly still: Try to look beyond earth's shadows,   Pray to trust our Father's Will.   There is work still waiting for you,   So you must not idly stand; Do it now, while life remaineth -   You shall rest in Jesus' land.   When that work is all completed,   He will gently call you Home; Oh, the rapture of that meeting,   Oh, the joy to see you come! Until we meet again my dear friend!

    Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments That take our breath away!
