Someday when this life is over
And the vale, I've entered through,
I'll see the Light I've yearned for
Since I was last here with You.

A gentle warmth extended
To fill me with such peace
And all those anxious moments
From my lifetime will release.

I'll take Your hand extended
With gentleness and love,
As I settle into this mansion
You've prepared for me above.

And as I look back down on Earth
And hear the blasphemy,
I thank You Lord, with all my heart,
For saving a soul like me.

You nurtured me so gently
In a World that didn't care,
Reminding me each second
That, in the End, You would be there.

To envelope me into Your arms,
Let Peace and Love ensue....
For in the end, all will be clear
When I'm here loving You.
