Jesus Hope Of Heaven
Afterglow
I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one,
I’d like to leave an afterglow
of smiles when life is done.
I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
of happy times and laughing times
and bright and sunny days.
I’d like the tears of those who grieve,
to dry before the sun of happy memories
that I leave behind when day is done.

Don’t Weep For Me
Don’t weep for me
For I’ve made it home
Through Heavens gates
There I may roam.
Wipe your tears
And dry your eyes
I’m in a better place
With Heaven as my prize.
Don’t weep for me
No tears and no sorrow
Live life for Jesus
He promises tomorrow.

Miss Me But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the
road and the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room.
Why cry for a soul set free!
Miss me a little, but not too long,
and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once
shared, miss me but let me go.
For this journey we all must take,
and each must go alone.
It’s all part of the Master plan,
a step on the road to home.
When you are lonely
and sick of heart,
go to the friends we know
and replace sorrows
with good deeds.
Miss me, but let me go.

Don’t Cry For Me
Don’t cry for me. I will be okay.
Heaven is my home now, and this is where I’ll stay.
Don’t cry for me. I’m where I belong.
I want you to be happy and try to stay strong.
Don’t cry for me. It was just my time,
but I will see you someday on the other side.
Don’t cry for me. I am not alone.
The angels are with me to welcome me home.
Don’t cry for me, for I have no fear.
All my pain is gone, and Jesus took my tears.
Don’t cry for me. This is not the end.
I’ll be waiting here for you when we meet again.

Son Now In Heaven
Last night while I was trying to sleep
my Son's voice did I hear.
I opened my eyes and looked around
but he did not appear.
He said: Mom, you've got to listen
you've got to understand;
God did'nt take me from you Mom
He only took my hand.
When I called out in pain that day
the moment that I died.
He reached out and touched my hand
and pulled me to His side.
He pulled me up and saved me
from hardship and from pain
My body was so badly hurt
I could never be the same.
My search is really over now
I've found happiness within?
All the answers to empty dreams,
and all that may have been.
I love you all and miss you so,
and I'll always be nearby
My body's gone forever
but my spirit will never die!
Live one day at a time
just understand
God did not take me from you
He only took my hand.

Please Don't Fret
Please Don't Fret
Don't grieve for me - the sad times passed
I'm here in our Homeland, Free at-last.
I have the ultimate healing because
I've left the world, I'm in His Arms of Glory held.
For here in Heaven, there's His Big Embrace
and Joy is seen on each one's face.
Jesus walks among us as our Big Brother and Friend
this is our Home now, we're never alone.
Please do not recall my sufferings past
lay them on Jesus, I'm here at last.
It's True what Scriptures say:
those things we've endured cannot compare
with the weight of His Glory awaiting us..
Yes measureless blessings, on earth untold,
for we cannot describe them, you would have to behold.
And when you too, pass over the other side,
the glorious liberty of the children of God
will be yours also as they are mine.
And you will see Your Rewards for patience on earth
Until then be strong, your Race to run
when you're feeling weak, Rest in His Love.

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free,
I’m following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I’ve found that peace at the end of the day.
