My Last Letter

Today I walk with our savior 
My journey on earth now ends
No more suffering or pain
As a new chapter now begins.

As I entered the pearly gates of heaven
And walk the streets of gold
In your hearts I live vicariously
As I know my story will not go untold.

Now don't you fret nor cry my loves
Though with loss there's always pain
Today we celebrate
As I learn there's much more to gain.

I am now our Lord's perfectionist
I build with all his grace
And on the seventh day 
We'll worship, then watch the Nascar race.

Now in closing, my final words 
I doth do say
To all my family and friends
I love you all, and will watch over you every single day.
