Sara

Time to come home Sara, your work on earth is done.
You've been a faithful witness, kept the faith, the race is run.
Death and all its darkness, now bows before the sight.
Of heavens newest saint, and your precious light.

All those who love you, who you've left behind,
Whose hearts are broken and are trying to find
Some way to ease the grief, to survive the day.
Whisper to their heart's Sara, you know what to say.

"Look toward the heavens, not unto the ground,
For I am not there, but unto life I abound!
I'm in the arms of Jesus, there's no more pain for me,
I'm basking in his love, alive eternally."

"I know you're hurting, that you miss me too.
And I know it takes time, but I know that you
Know I am with you, right there in your heart.
No, not just a memory, but alive and taking part."

"In your lives every day, perhaps a memory, a touch.
Or a feeling of love, when you need it so much.
Take comfort in the thought, I'm not just trying to survive.
But that I'm with God and completely alive."

"I'll see you again, no, not just in the by-and-by
But the reflection of smiles, that say you and I,
Are still one, in everything we do 
And you love me, as much as I love you."
