A Word In Season
Hey! you guys, I see you there,
Mom, Dad, in your chair.
Family ,friends now don’t be sad
If you saw me now, then you’d be glad
My body’s not broken anymore
Got a Harley outside my mansion door
Well. maybe not, don’t hurt to dream
Anything’s possible here it seems
There’s no more sorrow, no more pain
No more hospital bed’s where I have lain
In such a state of helplessness
With no one there to hear you fuss.
The “son” shines bright on this sides shore
No darkened days for me no more
Just peace and love, you’d never guess
That I’d be living in this Bliss
There’s so much joy every day
To see God’s real in every way
To know that he’s forgiven me
And from all my sins he set me free
Not laden down with earthly cares
Without the drag of worldly snares
My life is now so bright and new
It’s happiness in all I do
I know you’ll miss me Mom and Dad
I’ll cherish too the times we’ve had
The way the Sunday’s used to be
Together with the family
You children, growing up so fast
My love for you will always last
Without reserves, without condition
An endless love, that was my mission
To give you sound advice to keep
My word’s I’ve planted very deep
Within your mind and in your heart
You see we won’t be far apart
My love lives on in your memories
My spirit too with yours it see’s
If you need to know just what to do
You’ll hear my word’s, and know it too
That all the time you were so mad,
You’ll say that word was from my Dad.
In my book of memories, is my sister and my brother
I want you to know I’m very glad, that we had each other
The good times and the bad times, it seems we’ve had our share
But if we needed one another, you’d know that we’d be there.
If it were fishing or a hunting or just building a four wheeler
The fun we had together would always be a sealer,
Of the love we shared together a bond unlike any other
I was always very happy to have you for my brother.
Mom & Dad, I’ll wait for you upon this golden shore
Children, sister, brother too , my friends and so much more
I want to say to you, but find that I must close
But a greater family to me I could have never chose
When you think you’ve lost everything and there is none to gain
Just look again and you will see his blessings fall like rain.
You see I now am peaceful, he took me up to rest
In being here, I know now, I have the very best.
