In_Times_Of

Where did you go dad?
Mom, where can you be?
I saw you as you suffered.
Could it now be that you're free?

Oh, brother of mine that I love so,
For whom I shed my tears.
I know that you have gone away,
I know that you're not here.

Or maybe we have lost a sister,
A cousin, or a friend.
We all had our beginning,
And we all will have our end.

With the loss of a loved one,
There is pain, accompanied by tears.
But I thank God that you were here
Throughout the many years.

But there is One who feels our pain,
And sees the tears we cry.
We often ask within our heart,
We often ask Him,"Why?".

We're not alone in times of grief,
For He has felt the same.
He'll be the one who brings relief,
If we'd only call His Name.

When we have lost one whom we love,
And they have gone away.
They're with the One up high above.
They are with Him today.

The strength I know He'll give you
Accompanied by peace.
He will console you, this I know,
And you will find release.
