If Today my God were calling me home
I should have to wonder ......
“What could I have ....?
”What should I have .....?
The sorrows that I have caused your heart
to be counted on the hands
of our children’s children.
Yet when I see you ......
here ..... today .....
I seem to forget all of the pain that you suffer
daily on my account as I live for this moment
that exists in but an infinite future.
So, on that day when my God is calling me home ....
Be with me for that last moment of infinity.
Hold my weary hand .... Comfort the tired brow.
And remember ........
I have heard a quiet rumor of Heavenly angels ....
And I will softly tell you
of the bright wings that they wear,
and of their shimmering halos of gold ....
And as I tell you of this wonderful Heavenly gossip,
watch the star shine light my eyes.
And know ......
Without the simple “you” .....
Without your soul joined forever with mine .....
Without the heart of me
that beats for the love of you alone .....
I would never have heard
those quiet Heavenly rumors of haloed angels
that will carry me .....
When my God is calling me to come home!
