You have a mansion in the sky,
a home where love abounds.
Your new address is "Heaven,"
where peace and joy are found.
Our tears, that flowed so freely
on the day that we lost you,
have cleansed our hearts and minds,
that we may see with clearer view.
You gave to us a legacy --
no greater could we find.
The LOVE you lavished on us
is the "wealth" you left behind.
We miss you more each passing hour;
we're still your family.
We'll share the love you shared with us --
this is your legacy --
Encouraging each other
as we travel on the way;
until we meet you "over there"
in Heaven's endless day!
In my Father's house are many mansions;
if it were not so, I would have told you;
I go to prepare a place for you. And if
I go and prepare a place for you, I will
come again, and receive you unto myself,
that where I am, there ye may be also.
And where I go ye know, and the way ye know . . . . . .
I am the way, the truth, and the life;
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
(John 14, verses 2, 3, 4, 6)
