IN MEMORY OF G. L. MOORE, JR. 1925 - 1996 Safely Home I am home in Heaven, dear ones; Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty In this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last. There is work still waiting for you,, So you must not idly stand; Do it now, while life remaineth - You shall rest in God’s own land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh, the rapture of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come!
