ILL SEE YOU TOMORROW
By: Elmer L. Snow, III
Together we wrote a chapter of life, me as your husband,
you as my wife
As "one" we shared all of lifes pleasures, our moments
together, nothing but treasures
Sitting together, talking for hours, each minute of time,
were definitely ours
Then something happened in the midst of our love, you got a
call, from God up above
No final good bye, or last minute kiss, no chance to say,
how much I would miss
Your wonderful smile, your humor so keen, taken from me,
could God be that mean
I sat and I cried, my faith I did doubt, dreaming at night
would end with a shout
Why have you done this, taken my gal, she was my lover, my
buddy, my pal
But then I thought with a smile toward above, God has not
taken, but given his love
He was beside us the day that we met, a wonderful moment,
Ill never forget
God kissed our cheeks when we said our vows, cherish the
minutes, live for the nows
He left me with memories, a place in my heart, never a
second, would we be apart
As long as I breathe, youll be still living, inside my
heart complete with your giving
I wont see your face, but Ill be all right, youll be in
my heart, asleep every night
Someday Ill join you; God has his plan, for every woman,
for every man
Well meet at the gates of heaven above, well write a new
chapter, of heaven and love
So now I must live, despite all the pain, Ill think of the
future, and what I will gain
Heaven together, back with my bride, God will be there,
hell stand at our side
For now Ill be patient, and Ill wait my turn, time will
now help me, help me to learn
Youre in my heart replacing my sorrow, and you are still
living, but living tomorrow
