I’m Safely Home

I am home in heaven, dear ones;

oh, so happy and so bright! There is a perfect joy and

beauty in the 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. There is work still waiting for

you, so you must not idly stand,

do it now, while life remaineth- you shall rest in God’s own land. When that work is all

completed, He will gently call you home; oh, the rapture of

that meeting oh, the joy to see you come!
