Heaven

written for my great grandmother after she passed away

She came down from the heavens, to live for the Lord
She was loved, cherished, and forever adored.
She shared parts of her life with family and friends
Then one tragic day, her life soon did end.

She went back to the heavens, looked down from the sky
She said, "Thank you God, but why did I die?"
The Lord looked at her with eyes all so true
and said, "To Come Home", and with that her heart flew.

She thanked the lord, for bringing her home
but wanted his help with one thing alone.
"There is someone down there, who is sad and afraid,
she doesn't know how to live with the life that she's made"

He said to her, "She will have to try,
it will take many tears and forever to cry,
but soon she'll let go of all wrong that she knew,
and no more will she be alone or feel blue"

"For she knows of her Lord
and the grace that He shows,
and someday too,
she will find her way home."
