WHEN WE LOSE A LOVED ONE
by Lewis E. Thomas


Sometimes in life the suffering is great
When we lose a dear loved one
Who goes through death's gate.

We must not let feelings of bitterness slip in
Lest against our Lord our hearts should then sin.

God knows the hurt and pain that we feel
Take a moment for prayer His love He'll reveal.

Remember death is a doorway from life's raging tide
Jesus meets those who love him on the opposite side.

Those that we love are only borrowed from God
He gave them to brighten this path that we trod.

During times of Great loss when dark clouds move in
Just hold onto Jesus, he'll make the sun shine again!



Lewis E. Thomas
