It's hard for me to say this
I won't be coming home
And I guess you'll soon know that
With the ringing of the phone

I wish that I could hold you
And tell you it's alright
Or lay close beside you
And comfort you this night

I want you to know
That I'm not in any pain
And knowing how my life turned out
I'd do it all again

I met a new friend today
He said he'd take me home
And send angels to be with you
So you wouldn't be alone

He called me his brother
And said he was proud of me
Told me I'd be with him
Through all eternity

So dry your eyes and smile
Everything will be alright
It's real peaceful where I'm at
I'm with the Savior tonight
