Notes About The Poem

When I Come To The River At Ending Of day

When The Last Winds Of Sorrow Have Blown

There'll be Somebody waiting To show Me The Way

I Won't Have To Cross Jordan...Alone

 

Thomas H Ramsey   1905 - 1997

Fly Me

There's a quiet secret place
Waiting...just for me....
A place where I can close my eyes
And get a glimpse of eternity

Oh sweet destination....
Lord, you're all I need and more
You always make my heart......
Wanna soar

Fly me...toward the light
On wings of love...to higher heights
Fly me...to your heart and soul
Fly me, past the universe...
To the heavenlies, to the harmony
To where your praise is flowing...endlessly
Fly me

Life can be a struggle
But It hasn't been in vain
'Cause Lord, you carry me away
From the worry and the pain

And Jesus, I'll stand ready
When you whisper....It is done
I know my final prayer....
Will be this one...

Fly me...toward the light
On wings of love...to higher heights
Fly me...to your heart and soul
Fly me, past the universe...
To the heavenlies, to the harmony
To where your praise is flowing...endlessly
Fly me

Savior, friend...you always hear my cry
Blow sweet Spirit wind...so I can fly
I Can Fly.....

Fly me toward the light.........
