Dearest loved one please don't grieve
for you know I had to leave
for you knew that my work on earth was done
I'd been sick here for so long
when God's angels called me home
and I know now that I'm back where I belong
You know my eyes had lost their light
for they had no future sight
and the days were long and dreary in that bed
but every thing turned out all right
for the Sonshine keeps it bright
and I'm waltzing with the angels here tonight
You know my face had lost it's smile
and it had been that way awhile
and I knew that life on earth was not worth living
and I was frail and I was tired
when I came home to live with God
where there would be no more of tears
and He would wipe away all fears
Where there wouldn't be the pain
no more sorrow, no more strain
now I'm happy in my Jesus' loving arms
oh you know I've not forgot
And your still special in my heart
and you know that I'm not really out of touch
for I think of you each day
in that special kind of way
and you know that I love you just as much
But in Heaven now I'll stay
now the earth seems so very far away
here there is no fear or fright
and everything is peace and light
and every thing will be alright
for I'm waltzing with the angels here tonight
You know we talked about these things
and when I heard the angel sing
I knew that they had come for me at last
and I was ready for to go
and I had told all my friends so
as they held my hands in such a tender grasp
and as they said their last sweet prayer
I was nearly half way there
and then I left that world so far behind
where I had always been so blind
and where aweful sin had been my plight
Oh, but it's joyous here alright
for the Sonshine keeps it bright
and I'm waltzing with the angels here tonight
Now at you I'm looking down
won't you please wipe away that frown
for theres nothing here but joy in every way
and the time will come some day
when you'll be with me here to stay
and we'll wear our special robes and golden crowns
There'll be shouts of hope up here above
and we'll be singing like the dove
as we're surrounded by God's love
where the sun, moon and stars rejoice
and it wont be very long
and you'll be here where you belong
where all God's people all sing sweetly in one voice
and where you'll learn about God's might
in this beauty and this quiet
where everything will always be alright
and where you'll hear such sweet refrains
when God's holy choir sings
and we'll be waltzing with the angels every night

Beautiful
