The Last Best Place

I am a pilgrim, passing thru

And I've wandered thru the world and all its beauty

I don't know, what I'll find

When I cross that river to the other side

But the Good Book said believer when you get there

In Heavens light old memories will fade

And I will see, by His grace

In The Last Best Place

It won't be easy, to say goodbye

To everyone I've known here in this life

But when He calls me, I will go

And leave my brothers and dear sisters here below

All at once I'll be rejoicing with the angels

Resting in the promise that someday

We'll meet again face to face

In the Last Best Place

Some folks dream, of growing old

Contented with their treasures in some mansion

There are those, weary souls

Who search in vain to satisfy their passion

Some can't wait to ride that train to glory

And see St. Peter at the pearly gates

But for me, God's embrace

Is the Last Best Place

I will sing by His grace

In the Last Best Place.
