In Your Friends I See You Every Day

I know your true life has only just begun But it’s been so hard since we lost our friend, my son Crying an ocean of warm salty tears With an emptiness that holds so many untold fears But my boy would want us to know he's in a good place And that he’s watching us all with a smile on his face I am richer for him and proud as can be That he had so many friends, his special family Thinking back now I humbly must say How enormously blessed I am to this day For in my life, you played the most important part Those memories I will treasure and keep close to my heart I am happy for all the friends he got to meet For in you his story will not yet be complete I pray that all of you know how much he loved and cared Like a family, be thankful for the good times that were shared Although he has gone we will always be together And his spirit will live on in each one of us forever When you look to the sky, look for the brightest star As that will be our angel looking down on us from afar And now I would like to thank the good Lord above For blessing me a son with kindness and gentle love Dear God, if it is not too much fuss Take extra special care of him as he is very dear to us And son, if you are listening, say a prayer for us every day Be sure to protect us and guide us on our way We know when God called you, you had to go But we want you to know, Brooks, we miss and love you so
