In A Moment














      In a moment, brief, brief moment
We held and cried and prayed
Pleading for a miracle
Not sure what to say . . . 

You were here for a fleeting moment
We longed to see the person you will be
Yet our hope doesn’t reside in this life
Our hope resides in His Word

The things we take for granted now
So precious if we'd look around
The days that fly through our lives
We should grab one in our hands

Though only here for a brief moment
You experienced love stored for years
We trust that all things have a reason,
Yet struggle with the death of our dream

The full grasp of your life,
Someday we’ll come to know
God's ways are not our ways
One day darkness will be banished from the dawn

Faith and wisdom are worthy goals
Our questions are not a sin
We struggle to see God in the deepest pain
When hope is left for dead

But He is there, He walks with us
His mercies are new each day
He promises to never let us go
He will make it right on that glorious day

(Dedicated to Michelle Nicole Lee)
