Ode to You
Heavenly Tapestry: A Melody of Grace and Eternal Joy
Lyrics
What color are your eyes
Questioning the physical characteristics, seeking identity
Are they they color of his grace
Wondering if your eyes reflect divine qualities or virtues
What's the sound of your voice
Inquiring about the essence and tone of your speech
Is it the laughter of praise?
Asking if your voice resonates with joyful and praising tones
Did God take all my tears
Reflecting on tears shed and transformed into valuable symbols in heaven
And make them jewels in your crown
Suggesting that your tears have been transformed into precious adornments in a heavenly realm
When the bridegroom took your little hand
Imagining the moment when you were embraced by divinity in a symbolic union
Did you wear a wedding gown?
Wondering if, in that divine union, you were adorned with spiritual purity
Lest your beauty be unnoticed
Expressing concern that your beauty or story might be overlooked or forgotten
Or your story be unsung
Pledging to sing and share your story and testimony
I will sing this testimony
Committing to vocalize this testament of a departed child
Of our child gone home
Declaring the narrative of a child who has returned to God
Our child gone home to God
Affirming the departure of the child back to God's embrace
You were never hungry or cold
Acknowledging that the departed child never experienced hunger or discomfort
You were not afraid
Asserting that the child didn't face fear while transitioning from life to the afterlife
Of passing forth from this world
Expressing the child's peaceful departure from this world
No less member of our family
Asserting the equality of the departed child as a family member, despite their physical absence
Than we on earth who still remain
Comparing the departed child's significance to those who remain on earth
Than we on earth who still remain
Highlighting the continued presence of those left behind on earth
