A song about the parting of a loved one

Story behind the song
Lately there have been quite a few people in my life that have gotten "bad news", but there is a hope
Lyrics
Forever in the Arms of Love
Once upon a moonlit night, not so long ago
He put his arms around her, said “Babe, I have to go.”
Got to be with my Lord Jesus, he said he’s called me home
But you know that he’ll take care of you, after I am gone.
I know right now this don’t seem fair, that life is hard, but don’t despair.
For every time you watch the sunset, or see the eagle or the dove,
You will know we’ll be together, forever in the arms of love.
I see His light is shining, far as the west is from the east
And I know that someday soon, I will rest in peace.
I see the light that’s shining, far as the east is from the west
Everything’s gonna be all right, He’ll give you the very best.
I know that times it won’t seem right, and you may cry out in the night
But every time you see the sun rise, you’ll feel me smile from up above
And you’ll know we’ll be together, forever in the arms of love.
