I miss you so much, darling
And somehow I think you know
How much my heart is hurting...
How it broke to let you go.
God only let me keep you
For such a little while...
Yet in that short but sweet time
You made my life a smile.
My heart was badly battered.
Fate had given it a shove.
You filled it with your friendship
And healed it with your love.
Then Jesus came to rescue you
For a much needed rest.
I know that you are with Him
For He only takes the best.
The years we shared were precious
And you're still close to me.
I can feel you in each heartbeat...
Touch you in each memory.
I know you're blessed and happy
Yet somehow I sense you wait
Until I make that journey...
Until I reach that Eastern Gate.

life. He who believes in Me
though he may die, yet shall
he live.
And whoever lives and believes
in Me shall never die..."
