In Heaven With the Lord

Three years have almost passed,
  Since God called you both home.
He summoned you untimely,
  Up to Thy golden throne.

Kayla Brianne and Elijah Kyle,
  Were both their names to be.
But God had other plans,
  And brought them to Thy glory.

Though time is filled with sorrow,
  There are things to be thankful for.
For Kayla Brianne and Elijah Kyle.
  Are up in heaven with the Lord.

Beautiful tribute. One thing about being in touch with the Lord is that there is a better world ahead for us who believe. This has to be a comfort to the family and friends of the two who are now with God. Blessings to you for sharing this inspirational piece with us. Karen
