| Heavenly Garden |
|
Do not weep for me. For, I just slipped into a lovely garden room. I live on, as you do. We didn't part. I just went ahead, For you to join me very soon. Talk of me as if I'm there, Because I have not gone far away. I am more alive than you can dream, Where we can know eternal day. With all my being made more glorious, Shining brighter in another place, Speak of me with the same familiar voice. But, don't recall the lines upon my face. For I have been renewed. So, wear no heavy robe of sorrow. Keep laughing about all that is true, As you'll see me on the morrow. Everything of value still remains the same, Preserved in a continual measure. Lift your steps still high to find Living joy your heart can treasure. For, I am not floating in some gloomy shadows, But living in such perfect love. Thank you for giving such delight to me. Your sacrifice prepared my heart to rise above. Listen I tell you a mystery, we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a flash in the twinkling of an eye 1 Corinthians 15: 51, 52 |
