Kevin's Song

Kevin my brother I remember when you said goodbye and walked away.
You always said to live is Christ to die is to gain.
Despite all my pain.
I know you gave it all when you made the final journey home.
You weren’t alone.
And I remember cryin’ the I heard you died.
And the way I felt can’t be described except as painful joy inside me.
Now months have passed, and seasons changed.
But memories still remain.
I look around and at the lives you’ve touched.
And the difference your life made through God’s extended grace.
And there was a smile on His face.
The day that you left this place.
Welcome home.
And what you lived for is what you died for.
