Melanie Rose Dyer - The Lord Himself Came (In Memory Of Tom Robb) lyrics

rate me

By all ...and estimations he was still young man

When the doc said get your affairs in order, the cancer is back again

So they went home and talked about what they needed to do first

All he could think about is her!

"I'm with the love of my heart", he said,

"why couldn't Heaven wait?"

He prayed with dignity, and she prayed with grace

Chorus:

And she was by his side night and day

when his body became weak

She heard him cry,

"I need more time, I'm not ready to leave"

The angles waited so long for him,

he knew them all by name

But when it was time to take him home

The Lord himself came

Wished her happiness and hopes some day she could move on

She said "your love will still be in my heart after you're gone"

His friends came by to reminiscent,

but it was hard on him to see him suffering

She said you can let go any time if you're hanging on for me

And it wasn't too long before his soul was set free

Chorus:

And she was by his side night and day

when his body became weak

She heard him cry,

"I need more time, I'm not ready to leave"

The angles waited so long for him,

he knew them all by name

But when it was time to take him home

The Lord himself came

As the ...surrounding him, he had no fear of death

His hand was in, the good Lord's hands

When he took his final breath.

Chorus:

And she was by his side night and day

when his body became weak

She heard him cry,

"I need more time, I'm not ready to leave"

The angles waited so long for him,

he knew them all by name

But when it was time to take him home

The Lord himself came

The Lord himself came

The Lord himself came
