Benji Poem by Danny Speicher

I've heard those who mourn will be comforted
And, Lord, I am praying that verse holds true
Because I am in need of some comfort
Losing friends isn't easy to go through

And, though I know I'll see him once again
On a mountainside grander than those here
My heart still mourns and still needs Your comfort
I still need You to wipe away my tears

Funny, it doesn't seem so long ago
That your laugh brightened a community
And, your smile made any day better
Now, it brightly warms all eternity

And, though I know I'll see him once again
On a mountainside grander than those here
My heart still mourns and still needs Your comfort
I still need You to wipe away my tears

It's hard to say goodbye to friends so soon
I wish I could have come to know you more
I know this wasn't the last chance I'll get
I'll come meet you on that eternal shore

And, though I know I'll see him once again
On a mountainside grander than those here
My heart still mourns and still needs Your comfort
I still need You to wipe away my tears

((Dedicated to a friend of all, Benji Hawk, who we miss dearly))
