"GOING HOME"
WE GATHER HERE AS A FAMILY TODAY,
WITH OUR GRIEF AND OUR SORROWS, WE BOW HEADS TO "PRAY".
"OH LORD", ARE WE SELFISH FOR SHEDDING THESE TEARS?
IT'S SO HARD TO LET GO ,AFTER SO MANY YEARS!
NOW THIS BEAUTIFUL SOUL,HAS FOUND "PEACE", AND "CONTENT",
LEAD THROUGH GATES OF YOUR "HEAVEN", BY THE "ANGELS", YOU SENT.
SHOULD OUR HEARTS FEEL SO EMPTY?, FROM A LOVED ONE PASSED ON?
CAN WE PICK UP THE PIECES, IN TIME PAIN WILL BE GONE?!
THE "MEMORIES", WE'LL CHERISH, AS LIFE PASSES BY,
WILL SOMETIMES BRING "SMILES",,,SOME CAUSE US TO "CRY".
OH, "LORD", AS WE STAND HERE AND SAY OUR "GOODBYES",
SUDDEN "JOY'S", IN OUR HEARTS,BUT STILL "TEARS", IN OUR EYES.
WE SUDDENLY REALIZE, IT'S A DAY OF "REJOICE"!
FOR THIS "LOVED ONE", RESPONDED TO THE "CALL" IN YOUR VOICE.
"IT'S TIME TO COME HOME, YOU'VE DONE ALL YOU CAN"
"LIFE'S TAKEN IT'S TOLE", THERE'S NO LONGER DEMAND!
"WE" SHOULD ALL LOOK FORWARD TO "OUR DAY", OF REWARD,
WHEN "TIME" TO GO "HOME","REST IN PEACE" WITH OUR "LORD"......
"IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY"
AMEN......
