I Only Moved Away

When my life on earth is over and

my body is cool and still,

Don’t grieve because I left you;

just remember it was God’s will.

All my suffering will be over,

every trial, and every test.

When God has called and I have answered,

don’t weep for I will be at rest.

Only ask yourself this question,

“Am I ready to meet him there?”

Where there will be no separation –

in heaven so bright and fair.

When you pass to view my body –

remember it’s just a house of clay.

That Jesus built for me a mansion

and I only moved away.
