IVE ONLY MOVED AWAY
When my Life on Earth is over And my body is cold and still, Do not grieve because I left you, Just remember it was Gods will.
All my suffering will be over, Every trail and every test.
When God has called and I have answered,
Dont weep, for Ill be at rest.
Only ask yourself this question, "Am I ready to meet Him there? Where therell be no separation
In heaven so bright and fair.
When you pass to view my body, Remember its just a house of clay, Jesus has built for me a mansion
And I only moved away.
