When my days of wrestling
With the likes of Covid-19 and whatever else
Have been deemed enough
And the chariot of GOD
Says to me, "We have come for you,"
With wonder, I'm sure
I'll take that appointed ride
And we will soar toward the glory of the other side
And I, with everlasting joy
Will, with my FATHER, get to reside.
That's the way I imagine it will be
When I've said my last goodbye to
My loved ones and the rest of you.
And I ask you not to weep for me
But, instead, say a nice word
To my family that I will have left behind
In short, instead of tears for me
Celebrate my homegoing by being kind.
And I will keep a periodic lookout
From heaven's mighty door
When I hear the heralds proclaim
New arrivals to Heaven's shore
For, I hope to see you again
And I will, if you continue to live
According to HIS name.©
