If Tears Could Build A Stairway
If tears could build a stairway
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
to bring
you home again.
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say
goodbye,
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness
and secret tears still flow,
What it meant to lose you -
no one will ever
know!

ONLY THE BEST
A heart of gold stopped beating,
two shining eyes at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove,
He
only takes the best.
God knows you had to leave us,
but you did not go alone-
for part
of us went with you,
the day He took you home.
To some you are
forgotten,
to others just part of the past,
but to those of us who loved and lost you,
the memory will always last.
LEGEND OF THE RAINDROP
The legend of the raindrop
Has a lesson for us all
As it trembled in the Heavens
Questioning if it should fall
For the glistening raindrop argued
By the genie of the sky
I am beautiful and lovely
As a sparkle here on high
And hanging here I will become
Part of the rainbow's hue
And I'll shimmer like a diamond
For all the world to view
But the genie told the raindrop
"Why do you hesitate to go?"
For you will be more beautiful
If you fall to earth below
For you will sink in the soil
And be lost awhile from sight
But when you reappear on earth
You will be looked upon with delight
For you will be the raindrop
That quenched the thirsty ground
And helped the lovely flowers
To blossom all around
And in your resurrection
You'll appear in queenly clothes
With the beauty of the sky
And the fragrance of the rose
For there is nothing lost
Or eternally neglected
For everything God ever made
Is always resurrected
So trust God's all wise wisdom
And doubt the Father never
For in His Heavenly Kingdom
There is nothing lost forever

Remember Me
Remember me whenever you see a sunrise,
Remember me whenever you see a star,
Remember me whenever you see a rainbow
Or woods in autumn colors from afar.
Remember me whenever you see the roses
Or seagulls sailing high in a sky of blue.
Remember me whenever you see waves
Shining in the sun.
And remember, I'll be remembering you!
Remember me whenever you see a teardrop,
Or meadows still wet with the morning dew.
Remember me whenever you feel love
Growing in your heart.
And remember, I'll be remembering you!
