And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither shall there be any more crying, neither shall there be ay more pain; for the former things are passed away. Revelations 21:4 KJV The Master Called I'm sorry I had to leave you. My loved ones, also dear. But you see, the Master called me His voice was very clear! Come on I had made my reservation. A heaven bound ticket for one. And I knew that He would call me When He felt my work was done. I know that your hearts are heavy Because I have gone away. But when the Master called me, I knew I could not stay. Yes, I'm sorry I had to leave you My loved ones, oh so dear. But you see the Master called me And now I'm resting here. Yes, I've crossed on over to glory And to you all I say Just stay in the hands of Jesus And we'll meet again someday.
