GRIEF IS A ROLLERCOASTER
Grief is a rollercoaster
when you're with someone you love
Emotions are all over the map
As facial expressions prove
The laughter of the former days
The 'I remember when's '
Then we switch to more serious things
And that's where tears begin
What a Friend we have in Jesus
Who gave us hearts to love
And offers us a ray of hope
As certain as there is a God
He knows all of our life's account
He knows of every battle
As to our tears...
He knows as well
And keeps them in a bottle
With life, we touch, we taste, we feel
We know the joy of living
But still there's life beyond the grave
That gives us praise and thanksgiving
For death cannot rob us of this
Our life that's in the Lord
For the good Shepherd knows His sheep
Our Salvation is secured!
O Rock of Ages cleft for me
In Thee I put my trust
And look forward to Resurrection day
Because you bore the cross
And carried all my sin away
To the land of forgetfulness
Never to be remembered anymore That land of 'eternal bliss'
Where righteousness reigns supreme
For Christ is Lord of all
And sinners saved by faith in Him?
We'll hear their stories tell
Then ' praises refrain ' shall never cease
'Worthy is the Lamb'
And God still is...who He always was
Jesus the Great I Am...
