Wet eyes, reflecting sorrow.
Shaking sobs and trembling hands.
If only this world would end tomorrow.

We see the beautiful blanket of blue
As we look at the sky.
We imagine the heavens and wonder if God is crying too.

With a heavy heart we can carry on
And hold onto the memories of our loved one
Even if for now they are gone.

Some days we want to sleep with them
Wondering if there's a point to moving forward.
But when we fall asleep for the night we can begin to dream.

In our mind we see the beauty of what's to come.
The days we run young again,
The day where suffering is finally done.

We may disappear in this world for a while,
But when we wake up,
Our loved ones will find us with a smile.

Keep on dreaming of the day
Where our loved one is in our arms
And is there to stay.

We will find them happier than ever,
With cries of joy and tight embraces.
And this bond will continue without a sever.

Wipe away your tears, you lovely one.
God's love is holding you up.

For the day is coming when we will be made new
Under the sun
And life will be given to everyone.

Dedicated to two sisters in my congregation. I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved sister. Surely she is in our Heavenly Father's memory and will be with us again soon.
