LINES OF THOUGHT © 2016
Lord, I am waiting for You,
To depart in the peace that envelops.
Time has run, the body is tired,
But the soul has always found its home in You.
The days have passed, like the wind blowing,
And now, Lord, it is time for You to take me,
The dreams I had, the path I walked,
Are in Your hands; in You, I have placed my trust.
I fear not the silence, nor the night’s arrival,
For I know in You, I shall find rest,
Open Your arms, receive me at last,
In the eternal light that knows no end.
Lord, I am waiting for You,
With a light heart and a sincere soul.
When my day ends, I wish to depart,
And in Your arms, forever to sleep.
