Earth Still Spins, Tho' a Life Has Gone
Earth Still Spins, Tho' A Life Has Gone
Earth still spins, tho' a life has gone
with its course beneath Heaven's skies.
Sad the passing, but life moves on
births amassing, tho' one oft cries.
Souls that remain, dance as before
singing new tunes, as day is bright.
little to gain, through closed door
Heaven's design, its powerful might.
In our living, we laugh and weep
work with joy, earn our daily bread.
if true giving, peaceful sleep
as down we lay our weary head.
Years onward fly, we see the end
with great fear we may be afraid.
With faithful eyes, we see our friend
his father's word, all life was made.
Rejoice in blessings, once given
they are granted as true treasures.
Rewarded is he true livin'
for the bounty of life's pleasures.
Earth still spins, tho' a life has gone
with its course beneath Heaven's skies.
Sad the passing, but life moves on
births amassing, tho' one oft cries.
