In The Sweet By and By

by Gloria Beach © 1997

Please know dear friends and family
it's okay to shed a tear
but death is not something
you need to fear.

Although my body may lie
lifeless in this case
my "soul" is with Jesus
I was saved by His wonderful grace!

He forgave me of my sins
March 13, 1972
if you'd only call on Him
He will do the same for you.

Please, don't put it off
pray to Him while you're still
He loves you more than anyone
ever has, can or will.

You may be sorrowful today
shed some tears and cry
but if you trust in "Jesus"
I'll see you in the sweet by and by.
