A Ongoing Mourn

A light given A soul received Helping others find life in Christ While some stole his in need Behind leaving a family Who's soul doesn't understand In the mist of all this trouble Tries hard to seek Gods hand Here lies a man not yet thirty Departed by one confused and dirty Oh God, help us show the love you give Regardless of her murdering motive Today you dwell with Him in Glory While we sit, reminiscing your life's story The Lord gives and He'll take away But must You've taken him today Now weary and distraught Eyes like body, bloodshot Reminding everyone what we're taught This is the only life you've got
