Home At Last

Jesus reached out His arms, and finally called me home

I am at peace with loved ones, don’t fear that I’m alone

Here there is no pain, only everlasting rest

Joy and understanding, so I am truly blessed

My life was long and full, but I grew so very weary

That even days of sunshine, sometimes seemed quietly dreary

Know that I am with you, I’ll always feel your love

And I’ll be watching over you, in my place from up above.

Written by her daughter, Judith Warburton
