Death beckoned her with outstretched hand And whispered softly of an unknown land, But she was not afraid to go For though the path she did not know She took death's hand without a fear For God who safely brought her here Had promised He would lead the way Into eternity's bright day.
For none of us need go alone Into the valley that is unknown, But, guided by our Father's hand We journey to the promised land.
She was your special loving Mother You shared your lives with one another, And you'll find comfort for your grief In knowing her death brought sweet relief. For, now she is free from all suffering and pain And your great loss became her gain...
You know that her love is with you still For she loved you in life and always will. Love like hers can never end Because it is the perfect blend Of joy and sorrows, smiles and tears, That just grew stronger with the years. Love like hers can never die For she's taken it with her to the sky...
So think of Mum as living above No farther away than your undying love, For now she is happy and free once more And she's waiting for you at Heaven's door.
