When we grieve, sorrow
when a loved one leaves this earth
may we feel God close by
wrapped in the blanket of his presence
feeling his warm embrace
Sorrowful in this moment
though we believe in resurrection
hard to walk here without them
accustomed to seeing their face
Solace in the future
the promise of our king
to come down from heaven
and bring us all home to him
