To Just Let You Go

I know you

But you’re so far away

It’s been so long

And now you’re gone

But I still remember

I can see your face

And now you’ve gone to join him

And live in sacred grace

And as your life

With all of us has ended

Your life

With him is just beginning

You’re still in our hearts

You’re still on our minds

And even though we may

Forget from time to time

We still love you

And are very proud to say

That you were in our family

And we’ll see you again someday

For it is not

Just a sad end

Full of tears

But it is

A joyous beginning

With many happy cheers

Though it will be hard

To just let you go

You’re still around and watching

And this we’ll always know
