Death is just another step along life's changing way...
No more than just a gateway
to a new and better day..
And parting from our loved ones is much easier to bear..
when we know that they are waiting..
for us to join them "There"---
For it is on the Wings of Death that the living soul takes flight...
Into the "Promised Land of God"..
where there shall be "No Night"---
So death is just a natural thing..
like the closing of a door..
As we start upon a journey
to a new and distant shore---
And noone need make this journey undirected or alone..
For God promised us safe passage
to this vast and great unknown..
So let your grief be softened and yield not to despair...
You have only placed your loved one
in the loving Father's care..
***** Be not afraid, only believe..Mark 5:36
