this is not at all how |
|
we thought it was supposed to be |
|
we had so many plans for you |
|
we had so many dreams |
|
and now you've gone away |
|
and left us with the memories of your smile |
|
and nothing we can say |
|
and nothing we can do |
|
can take away the pain |
|
the pain of losing you but |
|
we can cry with hope |
|
we can say goodbye with hope |
|
'cause we know our goodbye is not the end oh no |
|
and we can grieve with hope |
|
'cause we believe with hope |
|
there's a place by god's grace |
|
there's a place where we'll see your face again |
|
we'll see your face again |
|
and never have i known |
|
anything so hard to understand |
|
and never have i questioned more |
|
the wisdom of god's plan |
|
but through the cloud of tears |
|
i see the father's smile and say well done |
|
and i imagine you |
|
where you wanted most to be |
|
seeing all your dreams come true |
|
'cause now you're home |
|
and now you're free and |
|
we have this hope as an anchor |
|
'cause we believe that everything |
|
god promised us is true so |
|
we wait with hope |
|
and we ache with hope |
|
we hold on with hope |
|
we let go with hope |
