(In Loving Memory of Grandma Neu)
In the cool calm breeze
I see trees of gold
Pondering all the beauty
God's awesome creation can hold
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world...
And like a golden leaf
One's life flutters
Fading fast-
In only a brief moment
Seasons of gold
And all their worth
On God's green earth
Are never meant to last
I've seen a life
Surrounded by children
And grandchildren
A circle of love
That knows no end
I've seen arms of love
Reach out and hug
And tug at heartstrings
Unselfishly putting others first
In all things
I've seen a strong faith in God
One based on trust and prayer
Never doubting in hard times
Knowing He would provide
And always be there
And I think to myself, what a wonderful life...
I've seen much suffering and pain
Wondering if and when
She would ever come around again
I've seen darkness that death can bring
But I believe there is victory in Jesus!
O' death where is thy sting?
In my minds eye I see a city
With streets of gold
Where golden streams of life unfold
I see loving arms stretching wide
Jesus, now embracing grandma close to His side...
And I think to myself, what a Mighty God we serve!!
