Never Alone by Rodney Belcher
We feel you in the morning
When we first awake
Your thought is with us
With each decision we make
You’d been around forever
Since the first breath we took
Now we have to go on alone
But for love we need not look
Cause by what you
bestowed
In our short time together
Will last our hearts
Forever and ever
Although you’ve left
And now you walk above
We’re never alone
We’re wrapped in your love
Enjoy now your long waited reward
Feel peace that your love continues on
What was taught to us will be taught to ours
Cause you live on in us even after your gone.
