Listen To the Warmth

In life at times we must say goodbye to those we love To those we hold close in the very recess of our being It is then we cry because we have them no more I'll let you go walk with Jesus forevermore To keep my place here now that your gone A narrow road I've found myself on. As I walk along with my heart heavy and my head bowed low To keep myself company I sing a song Merciful LORD I belong to you Wonderful God you are I no longer feel heavy and my head is lifted high The quickened pace of my heart I can feel as it beats in my breast The souls of my feet running as fast as they can My inner man begins to jump and leap As the presence of Jesus captures me I now know that your departure is but for a time I can rejoice, I can sing, I can run, I can dance, I can praise The Christ Son of God my best friend whom I love Jesus stay close to me and live in me as I have loved That When I myself am departed and gone You've shone so brightly and burned so within That if one hangs their head low They too sing a song April 16 2016
