In memorey of Paul Arthur 1911-2010

Our oldest church member has gone to Heaven. I wrote these two poems in his memorey. The first one Our Pastor read at his service.

In Memory Of A Friend

In the dark night God came to Paul
He said your mortal life is now done
All your worldly troubles are now past
My son your victory has been won

I am sure that up there he is smiling
Being there beside his Saviors side
Saved by Grace I can hear him say
With his God he will forever reside

He knew God and believed His word
God and his family was his whole life
He had no fear of what this world had
In his new home he wont see strife

Brother Paul I know we will miss you
But there is one thing that we can say
When we get to see you up in Heaven
We know it will be a most joyous day

Our Brother Paul

On a cold December night God called him
Welcome to Heaven I know you are a friend
With your faith you have had in your Lord
This shall be your home and it has no end

For many years Paul had studied the Bible
He prayed to his Savior all these years ago
He knew that when his Earthly life was over
With God up into Beulah land he would go

We all know that he is now with his Jesus
Many of his old friends he will see up there
Knowing that his love for our Eternal King
He will be in God's gracious love and care

Although we weep for our departed brother
We know that these tears should be in vain
He is so happy with his beautiful home now
Having no Earthly loss, Heaven is his gain
