Gone, But Not Alone
When you think of me, don't weep I'm not missing; I'm sitting at His feet I'm through with earth's trials, lab or and pills But, I've earned an eternal home so no tears
I've fmis hed my course on earth Yet, know I had to come this way fttst
Yes, I'm gone, but not alon e For today, wh en I woke Heaven was my new home.
