Mansions

For Erica Hambrech

 

Verse 1

Your heart of gold, your freckled, smiling face

With eyes of love that light the darkest place

You were called to serve the Lord

To tend the children you adored

He had a purpose for you we could never understand

When you were beckoned and you clasped your Saviour’s hand

 

Chorus

Mansions, many mansions

My Father’s House has many mansions

In our dreams you’re happy there

holding the children, you love and care

In Heaven’s light filled mansions

where the tinkling chimes ring in the breeze

and the children’s rhymes they sing to please

and the mansions echo with your praise and cheers

 

Verse 2

You were with us, so we thought, as our first girl

But your mission would extend beyond this world

In heaven’s mansions you are there

Caring for loved ones small and dear

Though we still wanted you here with us on earth to share

Your heavenly calling pacifies our hearts to bear
