In loving memory of Angel who we love so much. Angel will be greatly missed and be in our hearts forever.
A Little Dog Angel
High up in the courts of heaven today
a little dog angel waits;
with the other angels she will not play,
but she sits alone at the gates.
“For I know my master will come” she says ,
“and when she comes she will call for me.”
The other angels pass her by
As they hurry toward the throne,
And she watches them with a wistful eye
as she sits at the gates alone.
“But I know if I just wait patiently
that someday my master will call for me.”
And her master, down on earth below,
as she sits in his easy chair,
forgets sometimes, and whispers low
to the dog who is not there.
And the little dog angel cocks her ears
and dreams that her master’s voice she hears.
And when at last her master waits
outside in the dark and cold,
for the hand of death to open the door,
that leads to those courts of gold,
she will hear a sound through the gathering dark,
a little dog angel’s bark.

Time to Go
———-
The time has come I think you know
the Lord is calling so I must go
I love you so much; I wish it wasn’t so
I wish I could stay; I don’t want to go
You’re the best family a dog ever had
so kind and gentle never mean or mad
I’ll never forget the day that we met
I was so lucky to become your pet
You opened your door and showed me your heart
I’ll never forget you; we’ll never part
You loved me and cared for me over the months
you taught me everything and took away my fears
The Lord is calling now I must go
but before I go I want you to know
I know it hurts to lose a friend
but I’ll always be with you even to the end
