Have you lost a loved one?

Safe Home

 Safe Home at last my sweetheart,

You’ve reached the Heavenly Shore:

Gone on before dear loved one,

To suffer and grieve no more.

Thank you for the blessing

You’ve been through all these years,

As we’ve traveled on together

Through this world’s trials and tears.

There have been days when sunshine

Gave place to storm and rain,

And always there’s been grace & strength

To us both sustain.

We’ll soon to be reunited

When Christ Jesus calls for me.

How eagerly I’m waiting,

What a day that’s going to be!

It’s not “goodbye” my dearest,

But only just “goodnight”

I’ll see you in the morning,

In the realms of glory bright.

Then in the twinkling of an eye,

Our bodies raised shall be,

To join our ransomed spirits

For all eternity!

O blessed wondrous Saviour,

Who died on Calvary,

That we cleansed and forgiven,

Might with Thee, like Thee be.

Joining Thy blood bought children,

And the angelic throng,

To spend eternal ages

In thanksgiving, praise and song!

As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: 

I shall be satisfied when I awake, with thy likeness. 

 Psalm 17:15

Please use this if it fits your situation, in the places shown in bold text 

you could add the name of  YOUR LOVED ONE, as I did originally for my beloved husband David, who suffered so much through many years, and though I miss him more than I can say, yet thank our dear Lord so much for taking him at just the right time, and how blessed to know we shall meet again in God's good time, never to be parted again!
