Poem...
Safely Home


by Unknown



I am home in Heaven, dear ones;

Oh, so happy and so bright!

There is perfect joy and beauty

In this everlasting light.



All the pain and grief is over,

Every restless tossing passed;

I am now at peace forever,

Safely home in Heaven at last.



Did you wonder I so calmly

Trod the valley of the shade?

Oh! but Jesus' arm to lean on,

Could I have one doubt or dread?



Then you must not grieve so sorely,

For I love you dearly still;

Try to look beyond earth's shadows,

Pray to trust our Father's Will.



There is work still waiting for you,

So you must not idly stand;

Do it now, while life remaineth--

You shall rest in Jesus' land.



When that work is all completed,

He will gently call you Home;

Oh, the rapture of that meeting,

Oh, the joy to see you come!
