When a Loved One Dies

The true God sees each tear that falls, he feels your aching heart today;
He draws in close to broken ones, to help the crushing pain give way.
Pour out your cares in fervent prayer, his peace can guard your mind at night;
You’re not alone inside this storm, his loyal love will hold you tight.

Your loved one is not lost in pain, they are asleep in peaceful rest;
Safe in the care of the true God, held like a treasure to his chest.
No thought, no fear disturbs their sleep, no tears, no hurt, no lonely cry;
The true God knows their name by heart, and he will call, they will reply.

“There’s going to be a resurrection”—this promise lights our darkest days;
“The dead will live,” the true God says, and fills our hearts with quiet praise.
Christ’s tender voice will call them forth, from silent tombs they’ll step once more;
Reunions warm with laughing tears, right here on earth forever sure.

No more will death steal those we love, no more will grief cut like a knife;
The true God wipes all tears away, and fills the earth with endless life.
The trees will dance, the children laugh, old friends embrace and fears will cease;
Your dearest one will walk with you, in fields of joy and perfect peace.

Until that day, take one small step, his steady hand is in your own;
His word can calm the waves inside, you never face this path alone.
Remember what he’s promised you, let resurrection hope burn bright;
When missing them feels far too much, he gives you strength to last the night.

(Chorus)
No, it’s not normal when someone we love just dies,
We break because we’re made for life, not last goodbyes.
The true God wrote forever deep within our soul,
That’s why this pain feels endless, hard to let them go.
Yet even through the tears, our hope remains the same,
Forever life will come from you, our God Jehovah’s name.
