/ JUST WENT TO SLEEP

I was tired of life and all its cares. The many trials and all its snares; I wanted to be free of life©s sorrows and long-looked forward to my home of tomorrow; So I just went to sleep. I didn©t care to stay in the bed all the time, but I wanted to go home with my family so divine; and I just went to sleep. Don©t weep, don©t mourn, don©t grieve for me at all. I©ve gone to answer my Savior©s call. Just meet me in the morning in the midair, where we will all live together in that city so fair; I have just gone to sleep. I know you will miss me, but my time was out - longing to see Jesus and the saints shout; Forever with Jesus, you will meet me there, we will reign with Christ and the saints everywhere; I have just gone to sleep.

3ln ApprettatfonPerhaps you sent a lovely card, or sat quietly in a chair; perhaps you sent beautiful flowers, if so, we saw them there. Perhaps you sent or spoke kind words, as any friend could say; perhaps you were not there at all, just

thought of us that day; whatever you did to console the heart, we thank you so much, whatever the part.
