Grief with hope

as I watched him connect from this world to the next.

I held on to that ache in my chest.

We were always the ultimate team.

Our lives were a testament of Gods dream.

we always seemed to see each others reflection.

I never would have dreamed it would have gone this direction.

I know he's in a place right now with no pain.

But If for just a moment I could hear him say my name.

Lord heal this emptiness in me and help me cope.

Wrap your loving arms around me as I grieve with your hope.

The loneliness creeps in and I feel the pain of his loss.

I think of how God had felt when He saw his son on the cross.

I know one day I'll see him again and that brings joy in the sorrow.

But if just for a second there was one more moment with him to borrow.

I know Jesus holds him now and will never let him go.

I just can't wait for the day when I see what he now knows.

I know he's in a place right now with no pain.

But if for just a moment I could hear him say my name.

Lord heal this emptiness in me and help me cope.

Wrap your loving arms around me as I grieve with your hope.

Oh fly, my love, up to the one we love

Give Him glory, and honor, and praise.

Just like you lived out your days.

Your memory stays with us always

Ohhhh, your memory stays with us always.
