He Guides My Path – The Writing of Sarah Berthelson

There is a great day coming, by and by.
We whine, we cry, we pout, and fear
That we might die and will not be here.

God has promised to prepare us a place,
A wonderful mansion for all that believe on His Son.
Don’t you think that will be fun?

When we get to Heaven, one great day,
To see Jesus and loved ones gone on before ~
I am looking forward to that day.

He tells us not to fear, that He will always be near.
What a day of rejoicing that will be
When our dear Jesus we will see.

Think of how He has watched over you and me.
Lovingly, He has taken our hand ~
Walked with us, daily, through this land.

Won’t it be wonderful there?

No need to FEAR!

Jesus I love you and thank you for your love for me
If it were not for your love, I could not get through the day
That is the reason I kneel and pray
Jesus I Love you

You came into the world to save me from sin
You are my father, my Lord and my King
I am so humbled by your love I don’t know where to begin
To tell you ,how much I love you

Thank you for getting me through this valley today
Pull me back up on the mountain, I know I won’t stay
It is the valley where I call on you and pray
Jesus I love you

You are my friend who rides with me in the car
Everywhere I go there is where you are
I do not fear because you are there
Jesus I love  you

When my heart is breaking and there are tears
You lift me up and take away my fears
God I am so blessed to know you are there
Jesus I love you

Thank you for giving me a family that I love
Because of you I know one day I will fly like a dove
To Heaven where there will no heartbreak or tears
Jesus I love you

 At the age of eighty  three my dear friend went home
 To be with Jesus for eternity in heaven she will roam
 
 Heaven became a little brighter when Nanny entered in
 Her new life with family, friends and Jesus just began
 
 The ones left behind will miss her until we see her again
 God reached down and took away all of her pain
 
 There has never been one that would lift me up more
 Than this precious one that just went through heavens door
 
 Regardless of her illness, her pain and discomfort
 She smiled and said "come here my dear" I am happy
 you are here
 
 Jesus was her rock and that was plain to see
 Often I would think it is like Nanny  I would like to be.

My friend stepped into heaven today
On this earth he did not fight to stay
There was a bright and beautiful place
Where my dear friend desired to go
Jesus is there and so is his precious wife
Now he has gone to a much better life
Jesus told him to come home today
It leaves an ache in my heart
When from my presence he did depart
I sat and thought of the fond memories I have
Of the one that I loved and will miss so bad
A kind Southern gentleman was this dear friend
I told him often that I loved him
Now I am glad I did
Heaven was waiting for him to enter in
To be welcomed by his loved ones and his dear friends
The chair will be vacant as I walk into the church
The one in the foyer that I felt belonged to him
I will miss him terribly because I loved him
I should not be selfish when I know
HEAVEN WELCOMED HIM!!

Once in awhile you will meet someone great
Maybe not a celebrity or big shot, what’s that?
They often come in a shy sweet way
Doing whatever God asked of them that day
I knew a man like that, he was a gentle man
He enjoyed joking and playing around
For people to laugh, was a talent he had
God was so evident in his life
You were never uncomfortable in his sight
The people that came his way
He was kind and generous everyday
He often gave me money when I was broke
Never did he ask for it or make me a joke
My brother, George Dewey, is in heaven now
Waiting on his loved ones to come around
He was a bright spot in my life
In my heart he will always remain
There was so much love he showed this little sister
Sometimes she was a real pain!!
