God saw the r:oad was getting tough, the hills were hard to climb, He gently closed those loving eyes and whispered (Peace Be Thine).
The weary hour, the little pain, the sleepless nights are passed. The ever patient worn-out frame , Has found sweet rest at last. .

"For I am now ready to be offered and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Hence forth, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day, and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
II Timothy 4:6-8

BEFORE I GO
When my life has reached its very end, And I take that final breath; I want to know I've left behind, Some good before my death.
I hope that in my final hour, In all honesty I can say; That somewhere in my lifetime, I have brightened someone 's day.
That maybe I have brought a smile, To someone else's face And made one moment a little sweeter, While they dwelled here in this place.
Lord, please be my reminder, And whisper softly in my ear. .. To be a giver, not a taker; In the years I have left here.
Give to me the strength I need, Open up my mind and my soul... That I might show sincere compassion, And love to others before I go.
For if not a heart be touched by me, And not a smile was left behind Then the life that I am blessed with, Will have been a waste of time.
With all my heart, I truly hope, To leave something here on earth... That touched another, made them smile, And gave to my life... worth.
