Deep Peace

No longer must I roam
I’ll soon be with my Lord
I’m on my way home

Our time on earth is very brief
We should live in Christ
Death comes in the night like a thief

I cry for the loved ones I’ve lost
So many souls have passed away
Who can truly fathom the cost

My dear Daddy passed away
On Father’s Day, you see
All I can do is pray

I watch the stars and the moon
For hours all night long
I hope it’s not my time soon

We who are in Christ have the guarantee
After we die
We shall be present with the Lord immediately

I feel bad that my loved ones will grieve
But we don’t mourn like the world
We have a blessed hope before we leave

I weep for my loved ones who’ve gone to glory
I cherish memories of them
They will always be a part of my story
