Death is nothing but a moments rest Until the Second Coming of the Lord When He shall gather to Him of the best To take them to the place of their reward. Ive felt the power of Jesus in my soul
Shining like a golden sun within, Melting my hard heart to make me whole,
Burning out the remnants of my sin. Ive felt Him work within me, so I know The glory that will come when I awake. Ill sleep just like a child wholl homeward go, And in my dreams of love great pleasure take. So do not mourn my death, and do not grieve. The Lord will come for me. This I believe.
