                                                                    GRANDPA'S LAST DAY

On a beautiful morning one day in May I went to my grandma and grandpa's to stay

My grandpa fixed breakfast and fed it to me.  I felt so secure as I sat on his knee

I ate every bite of my eggs and my grits.  For a snack later on we'd have cheese whiz and ritz

But on this bright morning when the dishes were done we went out on the porch and sat down in the sun

Grandpa picked up his paper and on that old porch swing he went in a flash to meet Jesus the King

Before I got grandma I climbed on his lap, hugged him and kissed him then my heart felt a gap

Although I was little my heart felt such dread the moment I realized my grandpa was dead

Though I miss him dearly I know where he's gone; he's joyfully worshiping God at his throne

I can't wait to see him I know he is there praying for me to be kept in God's care

Soon we will be singing Amazing Grace as we all live forever in that glorious place

                                                  In Loving Memory of My Grandfather
