Before I Close My Eyes by: Jaay Dee Kayy

Before you lay me down to rest,

Remember when times were at best,

When we were happy, never stressed,

And love was almost never pressed;

Remember before I close my eyes,

To this temporary life,

I'm grateful for HIS sacrifice,

And I love peace more than I love strife;

Be reminded at my time of passing,

That grudge is temporary and love is everlasting,

I'll love you even when the trumpet's blasting,

Before I close my eyes.
