At God's Slide

At God's Side

Having shed so many tears
Knowing this day would come
But I would not change one day
No, no, not even one.

From the very first memory
His face was strong and clear
Dad was a Christian man
And these things he held dear.

God, family, country, life
This is what mattered most
Of the Lord, our God and Savior
My Dad would surely boast.

He understood his limitations
And prayed to God each day
Asking the Father to help him
This was my Dad way.

He was someone to everyone
A son, husband, father, grandpa
The sweetest thought of all, was
His poetry-He wrote of God's call.

"When we have no place to go"
Speaks elegantly even after he died
He leaves behind a legacy of words
"Alive" and well now at God's side.

Oh, how it hurts to lose him
But we are blessed to know
Dad words of reassurance
For he had a place to go.

A Mansion in the heavens
A spirit life quite dignified
Feel the awe and truth of this
God and Dad side by side.
