Heaven

Heaven
We're never ready to say goodbye,
To someone we hold dear.
If it were up to us, Sweet Nick,
We'd always keep you here.
But God has reasons of his own,
And plans we do not know.
And these are always for our good,
Though it may seem not so.
Our arms are empty- and our hearts-
Are filed with fear and greif,
For we who loved each day with you,
Now find those days too breif.
Yet if only could heaven see,
We'd know your happy there.
And we would never call you back,
When such great joy you share.
And so we'll trust you to God's great care,
And know some day once more,
We'll hold you to our hearts again,
When we reach heavens shore.

Dedicated in the loving memory of Nick Crosby....RIP
