When You Miss Someone
​
​
The sun still shines somewhere today
You may not see it, but again you may
You take the moments one by one
In those times you miss someone
Harder moments you will know
Moments when the clouds hang low
And then again, from time to time
Unexpectedly the sun will shine
Grief is not a right or wrong
But more a stream you float along
Navigating twists and turns
With always something new to learn
There will be times you wonder why
Something simple makes you cry
Times you think will make you sad
That in the end are not so bad
The gift of love is rich and rare
You miss it when it is not there
To send a smile or hug your way
Or call to brighten up your day
And yet the gift is worth the pain
The days of sunshine, worth the rain
Cherish deep what makes you smile
And if you want, well cry a while
We know that God is always there
Joy and pain with us to share
So put Your hand in His and know
His love which will not let you go
Share with Him each joy and sorrow
Trust Him now and for tomorrow
You don’t have to walk alone
He promises to guide you home
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:4
