Let it Be

By: Jo Smith ~~~ May 25, 2021


To never again hear your voice
To never again walk hand in hand
Is almost more than I can stand;
But then I was not given a choice.

To never again hear your beautiful singing
To never again hear the lovely music you play
Is a grief to my heart every single day.
To your beautiful memory I am clinging.

To never again listen to your great wisdom
To never again play the games we played
And then add to this the times that together we prayed
Becomes a broken and marred kingdom.

Together we made the light to shine
Together we made everything good
We walked in unison as we should;
Together we made life Devine.

To wake up and see your sweet smile
To hear your bubbling laughter
Would give me joy forever after.
To have to live without you is life’s greatest trial.

There is nothing that can ever replace
You in my life or mind.
Your love was the greatest find.
Only death can from my mind you erase.

I live for the time when we will reunite.
This is a promise from our God
That together again we shall trod.
I yearn for this with all my might.

But for now I have a race to run
I have a gift from God that I must fulfill
And that is the truth in others to instill.
I will accomplish this before I am done.

Only then will He allow me to come there
Then I pray He will others send
To teach real truth until the end.
Only then will peace be everywhere.

So Let it be true
That I accomplish
His greatest wish
Then I can again be with you.
