Hope
Today,
my heart was crushed
As
I saw tears in an Angel’s eyes.
While
a parent’s soul aches,
All
of Heaven cries.
A
life of smiles and giggles,
A
child’s peals of laughter,
The
world’s Sun shining,
With
everyone looking after.
Stillness
now fills the Heavens,
The
Sun refuses to shine,
The
World stands still,
And
now, so does Time.
A
family’s worst nightmare,
Even
God has to look away.
For
His comforting hand,
We
can now only pray.
In
a world where God knows all,
Even
He can’t plan for this,
And
all the precious gifts
Our
Universe now will miss.
The
Sun sets, the Sky darkens,
Now
I see, the Moon is blue.
And
these really aren’t raindrops,
For
the Man in the Moon weeps too.
There’s
a new Angel in Heaven tonight,
Another
of God’s chosen gone Home.
For
all of us, life must continue,
In
spite of the pain rooted in Our bones.
At
last, the Sun breaks through,
We
now see God’s hand reaching.
The
Anguish from Our hearts,
His
Love is finally sweeping.
We
find the Hope to continue Forward
As
the flowers we see growing,
Are
God’s Promise of Life,
And
Proof of the coming Spring.
New
Life abounds,
This
We all know
As
We can feel God’s Love
Set
Our hearts aglow.
