Mourning / Grief

 

Sometime
by Dot McGinnis

"Sometime, we'll meet again,
Somewhere in the sky,
And, together, we'll sit
On heaven's steps;
Watching the stars go by.
Somehow, I'll find you,
Though the crowds
May be numbered great.
When its your time to come,
I'll be there, at heaven's gates."

That's what she told us,
When we asked her if we'd ever part.
We told her, if we ever did,
It would surely break our hearts.
As she dried our tears,
She promised that
Our love would never die.
She said we'd always be together
And never say goodbye.
Then, she said, "When God calls me home,
Please don't grieve or be lonely too long.
For, I'll be waiting, my dears,
If it takes a million years, for you,
Somewhere, in the sky.

Sometime, we'll meet again,
Somewhere in the sky,
And together we'll
Sit on heaven's steps,
Watching the stars go by.
Somehow, I'll find you, though
The crowds may be numbered great.
When it's your time to come,
I'll be there,
At heaven's gates."

Many years have gone by since her promise
And it's lonely, now, without her near.
But we know, someday,
When God calls us away,
We'll meet somewhere in the sky.

Sometime, we'll meet again,
Somewhere in the sky,
And, together, we'll sit
On heaven's steps;
Watching the stars go by.
Somehow, we'll find her, though
The crowds may be numbered great.
When it's our time to come,
She'll be there;
At heaven's gates.
