to die is gain

My sweet friend, Terre, finally got to go home and be with Jesus after an 11 year battle with cancer. Heaven is where she most wanted to be, and I'm thankful she finally gets to be at peace with her Savior.

Terre wrote the following song, and she, her husband, and their Church's praise team recorded it one night less than a month ago. The slides are from that night. This song embodies who Terre was and what she believed. She never stopped praising Him, no matter what. She had the most hauntingly beautiful voice.



We'll always love you and remember you, Terre. I know your light will shine here for a long, long time. Thank you for who you were and what you taught us. I know that Father holds you close now, and you have heard, "Well done."

When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory." "Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?"...Thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
