Journey to Heaven



I am going on a journey

To a place I long to go

A land that’s filled with angels

Where the peaceful valleys flow.



I have no need for luggage

So I plan to travel light

A first-class trip to heaven

It’s a non-returning flight.







There won’t be tears of sadness

Sweet blessings I will reap

A torch will burn eternal

And the soul doth never sleep.



I do not need an auto

There is no bus or train

My journey is predestined

And I won’t be back again.







No need for food or shelter

Everything I need is there

My home that lies in heaven

Is a joy beyond compare.



I am ready for my venture

Got the voucher in my hand

I’m bound for Zion glory

In that far-off distant land.







I am headed for that City

My flight was paid for me

To a land of peace and beauty

Just beyond the crystal sea.



I soon will have my ticket

There is no need to pack

On a one-way trip to heaven

And I won’t be coming back.


I'll Be Here

I cannot ease your aching heart,
Nor take your pain away;
But let me stay and take your hand
And walk with you today.

I'll listen when you need to talk,
I'll wipe away your tears;
I'll share your worries when they come,
I'll help you face your fears.



I'm here and I will stand by you,
On each hill you have to climb;
So take my hand, let's face the world ...
And live just one day at a time.

You're not alone, for I'm still here,
I'll go that extra mile;
And when your grief is easier,
I'll help you learn to smile! 

Dearest Bonnie,

Although you have left us, you are still with us. We selfishly wanted you to stay but we know you wanted to be with Bubba.  My heartfelt condolences to your husband and family.   May they have nothing but sweet, precious memories of you and Bubba. Rest in peace dear Bonnie.  Your parents named you perfectly - Bonnie, pretty and attractive. You will be missed so much.

Love, Sherry

I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too,
I think of you in silence I often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part
God has you in His keeping I have you in my heart.

It's hard to believe
You are no longer here,
We think of you,
You feel so near,
In some small way, every single day,
Memories of you come our way.
