Favorite Song

Selah: All My Tears


When I die don't cry for me
In my father's arms I'll be

The wounds this world left on my soul
Will all be healed and I'll be whole

Sun and moon will be replaced
With the light of Jesus' face

And I will not be ashamed
For my saviour knows my name

It don't matter where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free

It don't matter where I lay
All my tears be washed away

Gold and silver blind the eye
Temporary riches light

Come and eat from Heaven's store
Come and drink, and thirst no more

So weep not for me my friend
When my time below does end

For my life belongs to Him
Who will raise the dead again

It don't matter, where you bury me
I'll be home and I'll be free

It don't matter, where I lay
All my tears be washed away

It don't matter, they're washed away
It don't matter, they're washed away
It don't matter, they're washed away

Yeah, yeah, yeah
It don't matter where you bury me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
They're washed away
They're washed away 

What a great, fantastic song!!  (By the way, family, this is the last song I want to be played at my funeral before everybody leaves. And I want a CD played of it. I don't want somebody to try to sing it! Make it happen!!)

Everybody who knows me knows that I want to go to Africa some day to be a missionary. I don't know when or if that day will ever come, but I feel like even if I never get to go, at least I can witness to people from beyond the grave by having this song play as my testimony; maybe give somebody a little hope.

So, this is by far one of my favorite songs. Sometimes if I feel sad, I can listen to this song, and just feel so much happiness and peace. We have a great God, and I know that when I die I'll be home, and I'll be FREE!
