In an instant
I dropped to my knees.
I was told you were gone,
And all I could do was cry desperate pleas.
But, I’m so proud of you,
Your obedience is a sign
That you are truly His,
Never made to be just mine.
But the sadness still lingers
Like a bad dream I cannot shake,
I awoke with an emptiness.
A void that cannot be filled,
I sit motionless, stunned, still.
With enough tears to fill the oceans
I commit you to the Lord,
Hoping one day, in this life,
All will be restored.
So many questions,
So much left unsaid,
I miss you, deeply miss you,
Only weeping now fills my bed.
I fear you will regret
Even the good you left behind,
Or that my love I sought to give you
Will be pushed from out your mind.
If there ever was a moment
I could hold your precious face,
It would be now just to tell you
Run, dear one, run to finish this race.
Maybe I won’t get to now,
But I know in due time
We’ll cross together with our Savior,
Time…In time…
Goodbye…
