YOU ALL COME

WHEN I WAS A KID AND WE CAME TO VISIT,

DANNY WOULD SAY

“YOU ALL COME ON IN.”

WHEN WE GOT READY TO GO HOME,

DANNY WOULD SAY

“YOU ALL COME BACK AGAIN.”

WHEN HE BECAME SICK I WOULD SEE HIM NOW AND THEN.

IF THERE WAS A DINNER FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS,

WITH A BIG HUG AND A SMILE HE WOULD SAY,

“YOU ALL IS WELCOME, YOU ALL COME, I’LL SEE YOU THERE.”

DANNY TOLD ME WHERE HE LIVED ONE DAY

“YOU ALL COME VISIT.” IS WHAT HE WOULD SAY.

I TOOK IT FOR GRANTED THAT I WOULD HAVE TIME,

TO SEE DANNY AND STAY FOR A WHILE.

I FINALLY CAME TO SEE DANNY,

HE WAS SLEEPING PEACEFULLY,

AND WHEN I SAW HIM I COULD HEAR LOUD AND CLEAR

“YOU ALL COME TO THIS PLACE IT HAS STREETS OF GOLD

CRYSTAL SEA TREE OF LIFE AND PAIN FREE,

YOU ALL COME BRING A FRIEND NOT JUST TO VISIT NOT FOR A WHILE

WHOEVER COMES WILL BE GOD’S CHILD.”

SO AS I HEARD, “YOU ALL COME.” IN MY HEART, I SAW DANNY’S SMILE.

I WON’T TAKE FOR GRANTED, I KNOW WHERE DANNY LIVES,

THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO GET THERE

AND ONE WAY TO ENTER IN.

I WILL SEE DANNY SOMEDAY,

IT WON’T BE A VISIT OR FOR A WHILE, BUT IT WILL BE AS GOD’S CHILD.

THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF ROOM FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

EVERYONE’S WELCOME,

“YOU ALL COME, YOU ALL COME IN.”

DANNY IS WAITING AS GOD’S CHILD WITH A FRIEND AND A SMILE.
