Farewell My Family
Farewell my family, don't weep,
For I'm at peace now, just asleep,
Farewell my family, I'm not alone
The Mighty "Maker" has led me safely home.
Just think back over the many years,
How the family seemed so strong, holding back tears,
Yet God somehow always made a way
And I thanked Him every night for another day.
Be good my family, always love each other.
Be strong my family, strong in heart,
The blood ties, no one can ever part.
And if somewhere I made a mistake
As you live many will you make.
Farewell my family, I've been called away,
Walk with God, trust in God
For He is by your side.
