I would like to share a poem called
Safely Home
I am home in Heaven,dear one
Oh, so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over;
Every restless tossing passed
I am now at peace forever
Safely home in Heaven at last.
Did you wonder I so calmly
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh! But Jesus love illumined
Every dark and fearful glade
And He came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely,
For I love you dearly still:
Try to look beyond earth’s shadows,
Pray to trust our Father’s Will
There is work still waiting for you;
So you must not idly stand still ;
Do it now, while life remaineth -
You shall rest in Jesus’ land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you Home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting ,
Oh, the joy to see you come !
