Legacy Of Love

Legacy Of Love

(To comfort one on the passing of their father)

You have the legacy of love and compassion, which flowed through your dad's veins

His wisdom, his wit, his drive to help men break the chains

Always encouraged them to never quit

Death is painful, but experiencing the second death is bad

Your dad lived to ensure men were saved from that for sure

Weep if you must, the pain of death never goes away

Remember to rejoice this day

A Sabbath day of rest

Celebrate dad's rest, he did his best, he finished his course

Glory awaits, sin no longer has a hold, he was bold

He shared more than fourfold

Time and time again

That our God reigns

Soon the Son will appear with healing in His wings

Dad will rise, no surprise

You will meet, in the resurrection so sweet 

Eyes have not seen, ears have not heard

We stand on God's word

In the meantime, may you find joy and sunshine. 

He lives in your heart and gave you the greatest gift 

An introduction to Jesus

A faith that endured 

A love that shared 

A home that was open 

A family full of love 

A legacy from above

Allow it to fill your memories and descend upon you

As the Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus as a dove
