Where the Good Animals Go
WHERE THE GOOD ANIMALS GO
Through all of Heaven's hiding place,
the animals run through time and space.
There God sends thoughts into the sky
to remake every butterfly.
Far past Jupiter and Mars,
far away among the stars,
far beyond the void of space
there you'll find their resting place.
There your pets all wait for you.
There your horse you'll ride anew.
There the lion and the lamb
rest in pastures as God planned.
God could not remove His pets
from the universe without regrets.
He keeps them all within His home
until we come to claim our own.
Nothing of life slips through God's hand,
not for the animals, nor for man.
