There’s a corner somewhere and He’s waiting for me
His eyes search each passing face to see
If I’ve come and his wait is at last at an end
Alone he lowers his head as he waits at the bend
The climb to that corner is rocky and steep
It’s long and it’s lonely but on it we keep
It’s a journey we all make; it is part of our fate
I continue to climb to where He lays by that gate
There is a corner somewhere where He’s waiting for me
With patience he sits but his eyes still can’t see
His owner who’s coming to make him run free
His head drops to his paws while he's waiting for me
As I walk that weary last road to the top
I look back, straighten up and come to a stop
For my last look at the beauty that lays softly below
I turn; He is there to His side I must go
I am now at the corner where he's been waiting for me
His head lifts from his paws, his tail wags slowly He can see
I have come to be with him his wait is complete
And He moves to my side to be at last by my feet
That moment we wait for not all understand
But some people and dogs need to stay close at hand
I touch his head, his eyes shine with trust and with love
As my tears fall to his fur we go to heaven above
