Rest Now

Rest in the arms of Jesus little one

Heaven is now your home

 There is no hurt or suffering there,

No painful tears running down your face

There’s only God's loving grace

There is no darkness, only light

Shining on and on

As far as the eye can see

Only love and peace abide

Forever you will be by his side

No longer in pain will you be

He’s looking down at you

With his smiling face

Holding you in his arms

It’s such a peaceful place

Forever in his presence you will now be

Where there is no more sadness

Only happiness and glee

There are happy tears this time

On your precious face

For you are safe now with Jesus

Forever in his loving sight

Because everything is alright

No longer are you afraid

No longer are you alone

For you are in the arms of Jesus

And heaven is now your home

So rest now little one

Rest Now

My mother was a rainbow

My father turned her grey

they loved me like a sky lantern

they watched me fly away
