~THE MANSION
OF HEAVEN~
~Author Unknown~
This world however beautiful was never meant to be,
the place
that we would call our home for all eternity.
And
though we would not chose to leave,
a loving
God knows best,
And
in His time He lifts us to a place of peace and rest.
For
he has built a mansion where his children will abide,
Free
from pain and sorrow, forever at his side.
He
said He'd never leave us to face our trials alone,
And
though we sometimes fail Him, He never fails his own.
And
even when our choices are less than He would ask,
He
knows when human courage is unequal to the task.
We
cannot judge what happens,
though tears
and questions start,
We
only see what's visible, God sees into the heart.
And
though there may be many things
that we cannot
explain,
We
can be sure it breaks His heart
to see His
children's pain.
In
loving arms He bears us to a quiet place apart,
Where
He mends the wounded spirit
and heals
the broken heart.
And
though these ones we love so much
have left
our present sight,
And
passed into a better world of majesty and light,
Someday
we'll be together in our Father's home above,
Where
we'll thank Him for His mercy
and praise
Him for His Love.

EYES UPON JESUS~
