"Don't Cry for Me, For I Still Am"
Don't cry for me, for I still am with thee.
Whenever you need me, I'll be with you.
And together we'll see things through..
Whatever pain plagues your heart, tell it to be gone!
For I'm still here to lift your spirits and help you to carry on.
Grieve me not, for I am not dead.
I passed on eternally, to an everlasting life instead.
I am home now...
Take heed to what the Lord Jesus said.
"My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? (John 14:2)
So, when I say I am in a peaceful place, believe that to be true.
God has granted me eternity
So, still I exist and I am still with you..
God is not just good.
He's the greatest you'll ever know.
You may have laid my body to rest, but my soul has plenty of years to go.
I'm with the Lord Jesus now, sitting high and watching low.
Dont cry for me, for I still am.
Your daughter, sister, aunt, cousin and your friend.
All that I left behind, I conjure still within.
You can feel me, talk to me and love me,
until we meet again.
Don't cry for me, for I still am.
The hands that held you, the voice that soothed you and will be until the very end.
So, dont cry for me. For I am not lost
I sacrificed being an earth Angel, to make it to heaven at any cost.
Don't cry for me, wipe those tears away.
Know that each rain fall, will bring a sunny day.
And on that day you'll smile and remember me way back when...
Don't cry for me, because I still am...
