Remembering You Brother

Remembering you Brother

 
God was looking down on you brother, I saw him Standing on his promise.

I quickly said I'll be a witness I have precious memories of my brother.

You were preparing to leave and I wanted you to stay, so I begin to speak for you brother. My heart was filled with grief as the tears were falling down my face. 

You slowly turn to me and said 'my eyes have seen the glory' then you turn your head and said 'pass me not'

I was so deeply sadden then a voice said 'you'll understand it better by and by'

I will remember you brother, 
it is well with my soul because some glad day after while, 
when we all get to heaven, 
we will gather down by the riverside, 
we will give God praise, 
forever we will worship him, 
Oh... what a happy day that will be. 

Always and Forever By: Nedra Wilsson {NOLA Poet}
