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