[Verse 1]
When I have passed beyond the earthly veil
And left behind the shadow and the gate
Mourn not for me as if the light has died
For now I walk with the Savior at my side
Among the saints and kin of long ago
I find the peace that only God can show
[Chorus]
So if you wish, remember me with love
And let me rest within the light above
For I am home, where every tear is dried
And ancient gates are opened far and wide
Yes, if you wish, remember me today
Until we meet where shadows fade away
[Verse 2]
I am not lost, I?ve simply gone ahead
To join the host of those the world calls dead
But here we live, and here we labor still
To do with joy our Father?s holy will
I?ll keep a place for you within the light
Until we meet where there is no more night
[Bridge]
The work goes on, the love is deeper now
A crown of peace upon a weary brow
[Outro]
I will remember you
In perfect light and love
