Traveling My Last Mile

I Hear God Calling Me
But I Am Not Yet Ready To Go
I Know The Time Is Near
I Am Traveling My Last Mile

One Foot Remains On Earth
The Other One On Heavenly Soil
I Am Preparing To Go
I Am Traveling My Last Mile

Leaving Loved Ones Here On Earth
Joining Loved Ones Gone Before
Decisions To Make Along The Way
I Am Traveling My Last Mile

Please Shed No Tears For Me
Instead You Need To Smile With Me
God Is Calling Me Home
I Am Traveling My Last Mile

Your Heavenly Home I Will Prepare For You
So You Can Join Me There In Later Years
Remember I Will Be Happy For God Has Chosen This For Me
I Am Traveling My Last Mile

I Love Each Of You Dearly
Each Of You A Special Place In My Heart
Understand I Must Leave
I Am Traveling My Last Mile

I Will Be The Bright Star You See In The Sky Each Night
Watching Over And Praying For Each Of You
My Love For You Never Fading
I Am Traveling My Last Mile

I Am In The Place Now That I Want To Be
I Am Happy In My Heavenly Home
I Have Finally Completed My Journey
I Have Traveled My Last Mile
