In Memory
Eternal Inspiration: In Memory's Light
Lyrics
We met in seventh grade in History.
We first connected in seventh-grade history class.
Then just another one
Initially just one among many acquaintances.
Friendship was a few years to come
Our friendship took a few years to develop.
But I knew who you were.
I had a clear understanding of who you were.
I knew what you stood for
I knew your principles and beliefs.
That much we had in common, but you had so much more
We shared common ground, but you had unique qualities.
And I saw a joy in you I did not see in me
I noticed a joy in you that I lacked.
You were a light for all to see
You were a shining example for everyone.
Graduation came we moved to L.A.
We moved to Los Angeles after graduation.
(it was) so good to know a face,
It was comforting to have a familiar face.
A friend I didn't have to make
A friend I didn't need to actively seek out.
Those long drives home to Santa Cruz.
Memories of long drives to Santa Cruz.
I grew so close to you,
I became emotionally close to you.
Friends from then on through life.
We remained friends throughout our lives.
Such a short length of time
Despite a short time together, your impact lingers.
Left here with thoughts of you that still inspire me
Your memory continues to inspire me.
To be a light for all to see
To radiate positivity and be a guiding light.
And one day we will be together in our final goal in the presence of He,
Anticipation of being reunited in our ultimate destination.
The one that made us be, the one you served,
Acknowledging the Creator who shaped us.
the one that your light helped us all to see
Your light revealed the truth to us all.
You're life was a picture of how I want to be
Your life serves as an ideal for me to aspire to.
