    Going Home

    Going Home


    I have lived my life and can no longer stay
    The lord has called me to come his way.

    My job here is finished and all is done
    May a part of me be with you as your life goes on.

    You have supported me well through my time of trial
    And memories of you will be with me as I walk my last mile.

    As the sun shines bright and is warm upon your face
    Know that I am in my rightful place.

    Hold true to the faith that will set you free
    For there will come a day when again, you will be beside me.

    may we all have the poise to say this in our last hours

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
