Oh, we were so very proud on that bright September day
When a little boy we named "Bobby"came our way,
He filled our lives with happiness ... he was such a joy ....
How we loved and cherished our darling, Light - haired boy.
Oh, sure, we had our problems. As most families do ...
But, we were even closer-knit when we worked those problems through.
He grew to be a great outdoors man and was always so glad
when he could hunt and fish with his pal, whom he called ‘Dad'
He seemed so content with his lot in life, it's really quite a task.
for us to accept the way he died, and we'll continue to ask.
"Why, dear Lord, did it end this way?" the shock will never cease!
But, thanks for the twenty-nine years we had ...
AND MAY BOB REST IN PEACE!

KEEP THE FAITH

You're troubled in your head ... Good times have come and gone
Your feet are at your knees, and you feel that you've gone wrong.
At night you're alone ... your heart now needs a song.

KEEP THE "FAITH" IN "GOD"
With night so sad and dark, there's no one by your side.
Your fever's running high, and you've got no place to hide.
She took you for a ride, your heart feels that it's died.
KEEP THE "FAITH" IN "GOD"
Don't confuse what you don't know, there's no way to say ...
what you have may be a hopeless case.
"WHY DON'T YOU TALK TO HIM"
Tell me your story, then tell me of your song.
Then we'll smoke and think of what you've done.
Yea , what you've done.
Don't confuse what you don't know,
what you have may be a hopeless case.
YOU'VE BETTER KEEP THE FAITH
Now have you found yourself and where you want to be?
Think before you say your piece. If you can't feel free
"TALK TO HIM"
FIND THE FAITH IN HIM ...
HE'S INSIDE,
LET IT GROW HIGHER ...
BUILD YOUR FAITH IN GOD
HE LOVES US ALL
"KEEP THE FAITH"
