With age and pain are laid to rest,
And casket closed and loved ones blessed,
We say goodbye, tiptoe away,
And leave the rest to heaven.
When sin and weakness are overcome,
And laid to rest, repentance done,
We let them lie, gone undisturbed,
And leave the rest to heaven.
We do not disinter the vault.
We do not place the blame or fault.
We only walk ahead in faith,
And leave the rest to heaven.
1981 Colleen E. Stout
