John
Eugene Adams
I
see the pain and sorrow in your faces
I
feel the deep love in your hearts
Do
not look upon me with sadness or pity
Do
not see my life as a tragedy
My
purpose has been fulfilled
Many
see the hardship and pain of my life
But
sit, very very still,
still your mind and listen,
listen for the truth.
My
life was no tragedy
If
I have brought out in you tender feelings
Of
mercy, of compassions, or bonds of love
My
purpose is fulfilled
You
may see great sorrow
But
listen quietly, there is so much more!
Inside
John was a heart that was good.
You
find no evil there!
Inside
was a tender heart
Of
kindness, of meekness, of love.
A
life of sacrifice,
that
you and I might sit and listen
and know
and know
John’s purpose in life has been fulfilled
John’s
gift to me now is as fresh as spring.
John
loved; John’s flesh may have been weak
But
if you listen closely you will know
John’s
heart was so good.
John
is a man that has taught us
That
love knows no bounds.
Because we love John that way!
Because we love John that way!
The
truth stands.
God’s
love and goodness are manifest,
in mercy, in
love, in humility, in sacrifice.
Now
with John it is manifest, in peace,
and a heart filled with joy.
A
love of God open wide!
A
great reunion with dearest family.
Tragedy
Never!
In
the arms of God? Yes!
In
a place of love and peace to his weary soul? Yes!
A
resounding, Yes!
If
you listen carefully,
you will know these things are true.
you will know these things are true.
For
the love and mercy of God is manifest
in
the life of. . . John Eugene Adams
