GATHER ‘ROUND YOU SAINTS!

You joined the saints in heaven,

On this, that fateful day.

Your allotted time had passed,

Nothing more that we could say.

Jesus said “you’re finished here”

Death on earth hath come.

“The kingdom has been waiting!

Come and live with Me, My son.”

Oh, our hearts were broken,

With thoughts above our mend.

But your cow herd was awaiting,

For you to come and tend.

Looking forward to the hour,

When we will gather to’,

At the throne of Christ ol’ friend,

Like a baby calf brand-new.
