Going to his wife

Today I left this mortal coil
For heaven to join my wife
Lay my body beneath the soil
I’m finished with this life

Since she left, my life’s been bare
No purpose to each day
Now I’m going somewhere
Where together we will stay

I know I’ve left you sad and forlorn
I know you’ll cry for me
I know you’ll feel your life is torn
I know you’ll feel lonely

Don’t let your sorrow mar your life
Instead, feel glad for me
I’m joining your Mum; I’m joining my wife
How happier could I be?

I know a father is supposed to be strong
But he can’t be without his wife
I tried but I couldn’t carry on
Without her in my life

All is well now we’re together
We’ll watch over you each day
Even through life’s stormiest weather
We’ll guide you all the way

Goodnight, God bless, and take good care
Wherever you may roam
Don’t worry about Mum and me
We’re together in our new home
