Until You Get Home Poem by Marsha Youree

l raised my eyes toward Heaven far above the sky
I knew my time had come for me to say goodbye
God took me by the hand and said today is the day
Get everything in order, for my Angels are on their way.

I asked God to watch over you and help ease the pain
He will stay beside you, until we meet again
I can't be with you, here on earth to hold your hand
But I will be watching you from the Promised Land.

I loved you unconditionally with all of my heart
I wish we could of had more time before I had to depart
But the Angel's took me by the hand and said, It's time to rest
I felt your hand slip from mine as I took my final breath.

I wish I could have stayed, we had so many things to do
But that wasn't in God's plan, and now my love it's up to you
You must go on without me, wipe away those tears you cry
Until then I'll be waiting for you, with the Angels in the sky.
