The Question Is-Is There Peace In the Cemetery

At the cemetery At the grave in the tomb is there peace The surrounding environment say that it's so Yet inside beneath the ground lies nothing but bones dirt hair left decayed Is there peace at the cemetery? Seems so sweet slight faint brisk win Joyish tweeting of a sparrow maybe a robin sings Such speak peace at the cemetery Touching in a hot warm day the cool cold hard granite tombstone The marking grave marking with the name engraved Is there peace at the cemetery? A lost loved one is no longer here today The question is not is there peace at the grave For you see the real person is not beneath the ground That person isn't here nor there Pray for me he or she was wrist away Instantaneously so spirit in the eternal presence of our Father our God For that's the truth is there peace in the cemetery When our sweet sweet loved one is embraced by Our Father God Peace Eternal peace rest, so sweet That they and you know, that you know, that you know they(you) know your in the eternal presence of Our Lord Our God for all eternity As our loved one walks the new Gardens of Eden in heaven Is there peace in the cemetery Then there will be yes, yes true peace in the cemetery? Hallelujah and Amen
