Find Me

When air no longer flows in my lung
And the last of my life song is sung
Look for me in every heart beat
Of your childrens kids in everything

See me in a strangers sunny smile
Know I would want you to be so proud
Of my cheery ways and bubbly greeting
You find in time yourself repeating

Find me in a cherry corny joke
That like a fairy makes magical note
Of how laughter cures or gives hope
To disaster we deliver to holy ghost

See me in church mosque kingdom hall
Helping the lost make sense of it all
Find me in the last song we sang
In the jokes we told as we played games

Find me in your mirror gazing back
So much nearer the majestic black
Soul never fearer of your strength
Find me alive and born again.
