The Master Called

I’m sorry I had to leave you;

My loved ones, oh so dear.

But you see the Master called me

His voice was very clear!

I had made my reservation

A heaven bound ticket for one,

And I knew that He would call me

When He felt my work was done.

I know that your hearts are heavy

Because I have gone away,

But when the Master called me,

I knew that I could not stay.

Yes, I’m sorry I had to leave you

My loved ones, oh so dear.

But you see the Master called me

And, now I’m resting here.

Yes, I’ve crossed on over to glory

And to you all I say

Just stay in the hands of Jesus

And we’ll meet again someday.
