I will always be near you,
Even though I am dead,
I will feel all your sorrows,
And every tear you shed.
Even in your darkest moments,
When you are sad and blue,
Do not be discouraged,
I will be there beside you.
My breath will be the breeze,
That gently brushes your cheek,
And I will hear your voice,
In every word you speak.
When troubles seem to be,
Just more than you can bear,
I will always be near you,
And give you special care.
I will be there when you are happy,
When there is joy within your heart,
We will laugh together,
Even though we are apart.
I will help you face your fears,
When you need me oh so much,
You will feel my spirit,
Even though we never touch.
I will walk in your footsteps,
Although I am out of sight,
You will feel my presents,
Each day and every night.
And when you go on with life,
As I would want you too,
Remember that I promised,
I will always be near you.
Someday in the future,
We will once again embrace,
As God has always promised
In another time and palce.
