Death is but a passing
from darkness into light.
I awakened from my sleep
and beheld a glorious sight.
It’s a beautiful day in Heaven.
Love is everywhere.
Peace and comfort surround me.
No place on earth can compare.
I could never begin to describe
the wondrous things I see.
If you could glimpse at heaven,
you’d shed no tears for me.
Keep my memory in your heart.
Time will pass and then,
one beautiful day in heaven,
we’ll be together again.
Now I lay me down to sleep. Those who loved me mourn and weep. Time on earth has come and gone. Yet in spirit I live on. I awaken and behold Heaven with its streets of gold. Such beauty, peace and love I see. Shed but tears of joy for me.
Somewhere, in another place beyond this atmosphere; Someone’s waiting for me. ...Someone very dear. A place where peace and beauty are well beyond compare. A place where love will live again. Somehow, Sometime, Somewhere.
If every time I thought of you a star fell from the sky; The moon would soon be left alone with nothing but to cry.
Using for my Mother’s funeral program. Non commercial, personal use
Is it possible to purchase a digital copy of the poem to be read at my funeral, when the time comes? Would greatly appreciate it. Thank you,
Yes, you may use it for such purpose without charge.
