I will be leaving soon,
its almost time to part.
But I will be Always Near,
dwelling in your heart.
My life here is almost done,
the hour is getting close.
I must bid you all farewell,
those I love the most.
I will be eternal soon,
with a glorious pair of wings.
Flying through the Heavens,
where all the angels sing.
Fear not for me anymore,
dry those tears you shed.
I am resting peaceful now,
for only my body is dead.
My spirit lives on in you,
all you who I hold dear.
Remember that I love you,
and I am Always Near.
