In the lonely wee hours of morning
When you wake and I'm not there
Please don't think I left you
Because I really did not care.

I loved you then, I love you now
In eternity I'll love you still
But I heard another call my name
And I had to do His will.

He said "I need you with me now
Your work on Earth is done
There is still so much for you to do
Here with Me and My Son"

"We have so many Angels
But We need so many more
Some to sit at the Pearly Gates
Some at chilly Jordan's shore"

"Some to tour the Streets of Gold
And through the Mansions fair
And your loved one need to know
That you still really care"

"They need an Angel to gently wipe
Away those unwelcome tears
To brush a kiss upon a cheek
And quell the awful fears"

"The fears of suddenly being without
One so loved for many years
And the awful hurt from deep within
As deep in the soul it sears:

I see your desperation
As you sit alone at night
Don't despair, my loved ones,
Everything will be all right.

Soon I will see you all again
As one by one you come home
Then our circle will be unbroken
As we rejoice 'round God's Throne.
