You'll Remember The Faces


You'll Remember The Faces

You'll remember faces of the ones, 
who when no one knew your name,

their love, friendship, and loyalty were then, 
as now, the same.

You'll remember the faces that shed not a tear, 
with those who cried with you, 

they turned away when those who cared, 
came running to  your rescue.

You'll remember the faces among the crowd, 
who cheered, rejoiced, and praised,

But instead their faces smirked and frowned, 
as you were finally raised.

The faces of those who cared about, 
your struggles, heartaches, and pain,

They were with you when you were down and out... and they'll be with you in your reign.

Real love is not from whose door is only open, 
when with them you have a status to claim.

Real family is not always the same blood, 
running in our veins. 

You'll remember the countenance of the very faces... of those you now know you can trust. 

They never took your kindness for granted, 
nor at first chance had knives to thrust...

Your story then, His glory now, 
your journey to higher places,

You'll now shine, you'll soar, forever more, 
but for certain, you'll remember the faces.
