Waiting For Gods Calling Poem by David Boyce

Waiting for gods calling

Dear lord we comfort those,
Who sadly lie in wait,
To be given their permission,
To enter those pearly gates.

So many caring people,
Who are elderly and infirm,
Waiting for gods calling,
So their souls can then return.

Many with serious illnesses,
Having received palliative care,
Who are waiting for their pain to stop,
And rejoin their loved ones there.

O' lord please listen carefully,
To their sympathetic voices,
Please don't let them suffer any longer,
From illnesses which were not their choices.

So when you send their calling,
On that fateful day,
We will have so much comfort,
And we can then kneel down and pray.
