For the Crew of the Shuttle Columbia
As they traveled across the clear blue sky
At 16 minutes they said goodbye
Our loving God our sovereign King
Call them home to be with him
Now with Jesus the seven walk
They smile
they rejoice
They touch his face
They dwell with him in heavenly peace
At 16 minutes they said goodbye
And looked into the Fathers eyes
Yet in a moment Swift in time
Here on earth 1 million tears work right
They left behind family and friends
But God assures us we will see them again
So with hope in our hearts
And tears in our eyes
At 16 minutes we said goodbye
Written Feb. 2003 finally shared today.
