good-bye, my loves

I’m sorry, my love, that I had to go
I’d never choose to leave you, you must know
But god has plans we know not of
And I’ll surely be watching you from above.

I know you’ll feel empty for a while,
But think of me in His arms and smile,
Because my tears are forever gone
And the love we shared will live on.

I know you’re strong and will make it okay
God promised me he’d help you each day.
Look to him for your strength and hope
He’ll give you peace and help you to cope.

Each time you feel you need me there
Listen carefully, and my voice you’ll hear.
You’ll always know what I would say
Remember, I’m always for you, come what may.

Until you come to join me here,
Keep my love in your heart and I’ll be near.
I love you more than words can say
And will hold you in my arms again one day.
