Though in time, or in the shadow of death, you know how much I care...
As I will always be close to you, and you to me, whatever we have to bear...
Should I be in deaths valley, do not grieve too long my love...
For it shan't be long, though we grieve, till you're with me, up above.
Watch the beauty of the earth when you feel all down and low...
And remember when we thought each Season was best, as each would come and go
Springtime was full of flowers and was your hearts desires, my dear love,
But Summer was hot and the oceans water cool, as the as the sky looks above.
Autumn was full of blessed wonder... Trees harvesting leaves red and gold...
Looking up toward the sky through the limbs, crooked and bold.
But when the Winter came and snow was upon the ground, deep and wide,
We knew that some day we'd be apart, but would ever stand side by side.
We loved we laughed, we cried at times, we were best friends always...
So fret not my love...hold on. We will begin again, 'tis not so long the days.
Compared to Heaven, 'tis but a fleeting moment, then you'll be with me
In the Mansion the father hath prepared for us, you will see...
I know you are lonely and maybe afraid but trust God to see you through,
He will one day bring you here and He said your reward would be with you.
I remember how good and faithful you were, always love, a true soulmate
So one day I'll look up and see you, and I'll smile, and run to meet you at the gate.
