gone to be with jesus



You look so peaceful lying there
 With your hands folded upon your chest.
 You look like you are sleeping
 But you are at eternal rest.
 So Long For Now.

Not a hair out of place,
 Your cloths nYou look so peaceful lying there
 With your hands folded upon your chest.
 You look like you are sleeping
 But you are at eternal rest.
 So Long For Now.
 icely done,
 A beautiful smile upon your face -
 For now you are with mom.
 When someone special passes on
 It does not mean they are gone,
 Though they are no longer with us
 Their memory still lives on.
 It hurts so much to lose a Family member-
 Especially one that is so dear and kind.
 Dad, you were that special friend,
 A rare and special find.
 Dad, you will always be with me
 In spirit and in mind.
 You will always have a special place in my heart
 Forever until the end of time.
 Dad, I will not say "Good-bye".
 This is not the end.
 So I will just say, "So long..."
 Until we meet again.
