Everyone welcome
The bell has tolled, the song is done,
And darkness falls beneath the sun.
We stand within the empty space,
And miss the comfort of your face.
The heart is broken, torn apart,
By sorrow's slow and heavy art.
Yet in the dark, a truth stays clear:
The love you gave is staying here.
For there's a crack in everything,
And through the grief, the angels sing.
That's how the light comes pouring through
The golden light we found in you.
So rest your weary, travelling soul,
The broken fragments now are whole.
We say a quiet, sweet goodbye,
Beneath the wide and changing sky.
Your melody will still remain,
A healing balm within our pain.
