Waiting At Eternity's Door
by: Helen Steiner Rice, Wendy's Page
Death beckoned him
with outstretched hand
And whispered softly
of 'an unknown land'...
But he was not
afraid to go
For though the path
he did not know,
He took death's hand
without a fear
For God who safely
brought him here
Had promised He
would lead the way
Into eternity's
bright day . . .
For none of us
need go alone
Into the valley
that's unknown
But guided by
our Father's hand
We journey to
the promised land . . .
And as his loving,
faithful wife
Who shared his home
and heart and life,
You will find comfort
for your grief,
In knowing death
brought sweet relief,
For now he is free
from all suffering and pain
And your 'great loss'
became his gain . . .
You know his love
is with you still,
For he loved you in life
and he always will . . .
For love like yours
can never end
Because it is
the perfect blend
Of joys and sorrows,
smiles and tears
That just grows stronger
with the years
And love like this
can never die,
For you 'take it with you
to the sky' . . .
So think of your loved one
as living above
No farther away
than your undying love . . .
And now he is happy and free
once more
And he waits for you
at eternity's door.
