FOR THE LOVE OF MY LIFE

 

 

OUR HEAVENLY FATHER UP ABOVE;
PLEASE TAKE CARE OF THE ONE I LOVE.
THE HURT,  THE PAIN,
PLEASE TAKE IT AWAY. 
I KNOW I'LL BE WITH HIM AGAIN SOME DAY; 
PLEASE HELP ME FIND WHICH WAY TO GO, 
WITHOUT MY HUSBAND....LORD.....I JUST DON'T KNOW.

WE HAVE BEEN ONE FOR SO MANY YEARS, 
I TURN MY HEAD, AND HIDE MY TEARS. 
TO WATCH HIM HURT, JUST BREAKS MY HEART; 
I HAVE LOVED HIM FROM THE VERY START. 
NOT TO BE SELFISH AND ASK HIM TO STAY, 
IS WHAT I DEAL WITH EVERYDAY.

IN YOUR HANDS, I KNOW HE'LL BE WELL, 
I KNOW IT LORD, I JUST CAN TELL. 
DEAR LORD, PLEASE TAKE CARE OF HIM FOR ME, 
AND PLEASE HELP ME SO THAT I CAN SEE. 
ALL THE LOVE AND BEAUTY OF YOUR HOME. 
I KNOW MY LOVE WILL NOT BE ALONE.

PLEASE STOP THE PAIN HE FEELS EACH NIGHT, 
IN YOUR ARMS I KNOW HE'LL BE ALRIGHT. 
AND UNTIL WE AGAIN BECOME AS ONE, 
LET HIM KNOW I LOVE HIM AND I'LL JOIN HIM 
WHEN MY WORK HERE IS DONE.
