Tribute
The Soul has its SEASONS just the same as the year, and we must pass through the seasons God sends. God has finally sent for me, My body was weary, my soul set free.
“.....And Jesus took His own hand and wiped away her tears, And he smoothed the furrows from her face, and the angels sang a little song, And Jesus rocked her in His arms, and kept a-saying: Take your rest, Take your rest, Take your rest. Weep not, she is not dead; She’s resting in the bosom of Jesus.”
~ James Weldon Johnson
