POEM DEDICATED BY FAMILY "I HAVE A PLACE IN HEAVEN"
Hallmark Cards, inc. Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears, For I am in a perfect place, Away from pain and tears... I'm far away from hunger And hurt and want and pride.
I have a place in Heaven With the Master at my side. My life on earth was very good,
As earthly lives can go, But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know ... My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too. To walk with God is perfect peace,
