When God reached down
And collected his soul
He reached up knowing
He had to go

Slipping away peacefully
His body remained
One final look back
He smiled

Reaching home again
A place he'd forgot
Past memories came flooding
With splendor and awe

God gave back sights
We can not imagine
He finally found
His home Heaven.

RIP Pastor Wagaman.
