  Life is but a stopping place
  A pause in what's to be
  A resting place along the road
  to sweet eternity.
  
  We all have different journeys
  Different paths along the way
  We all were meant to learn some things
  but never meant to stay.
  
  Our destination is a place
  Far greater than we know-
  For some the journey's quicker
  For some the journey's slow.
  
  And when the journey finally ends
  We'll claim a big reward
  And find an everlasting peace
  Together with the Lord!
