      To God’s Arms

Go in peace my child
The end of pain has come.
You must leave me for awhile
You’ll be safe in God’s arms.

Just close your heavy eyes
The joy of heaven awaits.
My love is always with you
It’s all that you can take.

Now no more tears my love
God wipes them all away.
The warmth of his sweet love
Will keep your fears at bay.

So fly on wings of love,
Fly to heavens gate.
We’ll be together soon my babe,
It’s only a short wait.

Rest in divine bliss my sweet,
You’ll soon see me again.
We’ll meet where sorrow has no hold,
Goodbye my heart till then.

"Goodbye my heart till then."
A bitter sweet line. Left me with a lump in my throat!

The title caught my attention - guess I needed to cry and this is why - "Goodbye my heart till then".  I hate goodbyes but enjoyed your words.
