The Eternal Race by Danette Kettwich We stand here our hearts are broken Speechless and full of grief. Not knowing when our hearts will Again feel joy's relief. A life that was beginning Is a life now left behind. We so much wanted to see The mountains you would climb. To see the woman you would be And the life that you would live. We see tears when we wanted To see more of the love you'd give. We may question God because We can not fully see How many lives that you touched Before He set you free. We know you are safe and sound You now will feel no more pain We rejoice knowing one day We will see you again. Even though you'll be missed You are loved with all our might You gave life all that you had You fought a valiant fight. Now go into God's presence Into His glorious grace You've now reached the finish line In life's eternal race. |
