A Million Miles Apart


I know it seems as if we are
A million miles apart

But my memories live within you

They stay deep within your heart

If you listen very closely

To the rustle of the trees

You'll hear the echo of my bark

Floating down among the leaves

And as the sun shines brightly

Spreading light upon your face

My love flows down from Heaven

Sending you a warm embrace

I know it seems as if we are

A million miles apart

But I am right there with you

I live deep within your heart

"Safely Home"

I am home in heaven, dear ones;
Oh, so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in Heaven at last.

Did you wonder I so calmly
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh! But Jesus' love illuminated
Every dark and fearful glade.

And He came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?

Then you must not grieve so sorely,
For I love you dearly still;
Try to look beyond earth's shadows.
Pray to trust our Father's Will.

There is work still waiting for you;
So you must not idly stand
Do it now, while life remaineth --
You shall rest in Jesus' land.

When your work is all completed,
He will gently call you Home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come!
