The Invitation

I had a talk with God Just the other day He invited me to his kingdom And then asked me to stay. He said the time had come For me to leave my earthly home To come to live with him And be seated by his throne. All my troubles, pains and worries Were to very soon subside He said my new life begins today So I went ahead and complied. I know it doesn't seem fair But everything's gonna be alright God is taking care of me now As I rejoice in His light. When He saw what was happening He didn't want to see me suffer He came down to protect me His love became my buffer. My friends, my family those Who were with me my last days I'm sorry to have broken your hearts But this was the only way. I know it's hard to understand Why it had to be this way Even more why it was me I truly can not say. All I know is I did What God asked of me to do As for which I was rewarded When He said "I love you." So don't be discouraged Our day will soon come again Keep me in your hearts and memories We'll be together in the end.
