A TALK WITH GOD
I had a talk with God
During my suffering and pain
He said it was time to come home
Where pain would no longer be
And my soul would be free.
Im with the Master
In the sunshine land
Where the flowers are in full bloom
The trees are a pretty green
Everyone is happy and free
As all living things should be.
When you feel lonely or miss me
Look up to Heaven
And Ill be looking down, smiling
Just so youll know, Im Okay
So dont cry for me
Remember joy comes in the morning
It is dawn and Im happy
Alongside God in His kingdom.
