Lyrics:
The Parting Glass (Journey's End)
by J.B. Goodenough
The fire is out, the moon is down
The parting glass is dry and done
And I must go and leave this town
Before the rising of the sun.
Long's the road and far's the mile
Before I rest my soul again
With girls that weep and girls that smile
At all the words and ways of men.
And some there are who may not hide
But wander 'til their journey's end
Or take a girl to be a bride
Or keep a man to be a friend.
When I'm done with wandering
I will sit beside the road and weep
For all the songs I did not sing
And promises I did not keep.

[@johnwallis1309]

poem by judy b goodenough

[@RIDETHESUNSHINE]

“I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?”
Mother Teresa - Attributed
