The Open Door

Do not cry nor weep for me now that my life on earth is done

I have gone on to a better place with the setting of the sun

I passed through a heavenly doorway but the door is left ajar

And although you cannot see me I have really not gone far

My earthly life is over, I am free from hurt and pain

And now I wait in perfect peace until you join me once again

Loved ones are truly never divided, some simply go on before

And there with sweet anticipation they eye the open door.
