It's Time Beloved

Every now and then I wonder what God might like to write to His faithful...

 

It’s time beloved to come home

Your work below is through

You’ve done all that I've asked

I’m so pleased with you

Though we’ve still much to accomplish

It’s time that you were here

The trumpet’s poised and ready

Come, my Bride, draw near

 

The prayer you’ve offered has been heard

My gifts you’ve used so well

The souls you’ve touched and shown my way

Oh, the stories that they’ll tell

But now it’s time, the last one’s filled

Come beloved… come join me

Heaven’s angels are now assembled

It's you they long to see!

 

Soon beloved, I shall call out

“Take your place here at my side”

All eternity awaits

The arrival of my Bride

Faithful, ever faithful

You’ve endured unto the end

It’s time beloved to come home

My precious, trusted friends.

this is such a fitting tribute to the life you lived, I am glad that you've found your way home, but so sad that there will be no more words from you here

I will only shed a tear or two in celebration of the light you gave. God bless you and your family. I will be praying for them as they say their own difficult good byes.

This song puts that yearning in my heart, AK. It makes me crave heaven, but until that day comes, I pray His strength be infused into us to keep on keepin' on for Him and to fulfill our destiny's on this earth. This is beautifully written. The rhyme is excellent and the flow is perfect. Well done, my friend, well done! It's always a pleasure to read your work. (Also, thank you for reviewing my latest: "Always remember the glass!" Have an awesome day~
