SRP - A Tragedy in Progress

If we could give love a name

I hope you know you’d share the same

If hope was like water

We’d all drown in your rain

If faith was a bright light

You’d illuminate the way

You were a gift to us

Each and every day

Two had the privilege to call you mom

But you were mother to many more

A wife to a man to whom you were the world

Beloved sister, your parent’s little girl

If we could give love a name

I hope you know you’d share the same

If hope was like water

We’d all drown in your rain

If faith was a bright light

You’d illuminate the way

You were a gift to us

Each and every day

And I can remember years ago

We spent a week on the Florida coast

Fireworks on the Fourth of July in front of your home

You played Mary in Jimmy’s Easter show

And outside of six feet of snow

You let us in and we all huddled close

Memories mean more than you’ll ever know

I’ll never let them escape my hold

Rest easy in a better place

We’ll join you soon through sufficient grace

Until that day

We’ll hold you close

As they say, you broke the mold

And we’ll hold you close

If we could give love a name

I hope you know you’d share the same

If hope was like water

We’d all drown in your rain

If faith was a bright light

You’d illuminate the way

You were a gift to us

Each and every day

If we could give love a name

I hope you know you’d share the same

If hope was like water

We’d all drown in your rain

If faith was a bright light

You’d illuminate the way

You were a gift to us

Each and every day
