Walk away from this world
Into the one that's very near
Go with faith and confidence
It's all right to leave me here

The transition is very simple
You have done it all before
Close your eyes in expectation
And open the other door

Don't be apprehensive
You will see the Promised Land
There are those in Spirit who love you
Who are waiting to take your hand

The two worlds are so close
Really just a whisper away
Brush near me as you leave me
We'll be together again one day

Go onward before me
And make a home for two
Trust in the Master Jesus
Who will journey home with you

I shall miss your familiar face
But love can never die
Two eternal spirits
Who just can't say 'goodbye'
