He Said 'it's so beautiful'

He said
"It's so beautiful"
He said
"It's so beautiful"
Whatever he saw
Was beyond the walls
Of the room where he lay,
Slipping away
It filled him with awe;
The words not at all
Something we'd ever
Heard him say
He said
"It's so beautiful"
He said
"It's so beautiful"
No longer aware
Of us all weeping there,
He saw with his eyes
Wide opened, though closed
What none of us knows,
And the living can't share
And the world cannot bear
'Till she is dressed
In new clothes
He said
"It's so beautiful"
He said
"It's so beautiful
These words were his last
And that's when he passed
Beyond all sorrow,
Suffering, and pain
And we who remain
Will ever hold fast
To these words that he gasped
And the truth he proclaimed
He said
"It's so beautiful"
He said
"It's so beautiful
He said
"It's so beautiful"
He said
"It's so beautiful"
