We Don't Say Goodbye

from Lamentation by Natalie Kendel

/

lyrics

A song written in memory of, and dedicated to,
pastor Andrew Davis,
who fell asleep in Dec 2019.

We'll see you in our Father's house.

--------------------------------

(John 14:2, 3)

Many soldier’s fallen on the battle field,
many of our loved ones now sleep,
many friends have left behind a hole we
cannot fill.

Many are the tears we shed in mourning,
many are the times we have yearned,
many are the days when a thieving flame
has burned.


But
We don’t say goodbye;
we say: "See you soon".
With Jesus ‘round the corner,
the wait will soon be done.
And though you sleep a while
you’ll wake a better day.
And we don’t have to stay apart,
‘cause he’s never late.
And we’ll meet you in our Father’s house.

Many are the rooms he has prepared us,
many are the days that lie ahead,
many are the joys we can’t imagine
till death is dead.

And
We don’t say goodbye;
we say: "See you soon".
With Jesus ‘round the corner,
the wait will soon be done.
And though you sleep a while
you’ll wake a better day.
And we don’t have to stay apart,
‘cause he’s never late.
And we’ll meet you in our Father’s house.

Oh, what a reunion:
What a feast of joy we'll have!
Your race is run, and Jesus won
so I’ll see you at the end;
we’ll see you at the beginning

We don’t say goodbye;
we say: "See you soon".
With Jesus ‘round the corner,
the wait will soon be done.
And though you sleep a while
you’ll wake a better day.
And we don’t have to stay apart,
‘cause he’s never late.

We'll see you in our Father's
See you with our Father
And we’ll see you in our Father’s
house.
