The day has come~
All be it far too soon, I know,
to surrender unto God
this one that you loved so.

No amount of words,
no matter how be they wise,
can take away the pain
when someone so special dies.

Grief is such a personal thing
we each accept in our own way.
My heart can only guess
what yours feels today.

I am sorry for your sorrow.
But, I do understand your tears.
For, we all suffer parting
if we've lived enough y ears.

Try to remember, if you can,
that, someday, you will again meet
(they truly are waiting there)
when we join them at Jesus' feet.

I pray, in time, the tears will pass
and a smile takes their place;
as your heart begins to heal,
by God's amazing Grace.
