(Soft
piano
notes
drifting
in
the
air)
Oh,
the
silence
is
heavy
tonight
I
feel
your
spirit
in
the
fading
light
Grandma,
can
you
hear
me?
The
chair
is
empty
where
you
used
to
sit
The
lamp
is
dim,
the
wick
is
barely
lit
I
remember
how
you
told
me
to
be
strong
You
taught
me
right
when
all
the
world
was
wrong
Your
hands
were
rough
from
years
of
honest
toil
You
planted
seeds
within
this
sacred
soil
I
hear
your
wisdom
in
the
midnight
breeze
You
brought
me
comfort,
brought
me
to
my
knees
Oh,
your
love
was
the
anchor
in
the
storm
A
steady
fire
to
keep
my
spirit
warm
Though
you
are
gone
into
the
great
unknown
You
left
a
light
that
I
will
call
my
own
Iā
ll
carry
on,
Iā
ll
walk
the
path
you
paved
Your
memory
is
the
treasure
that
I
saved
I
see
your
face
in
every
mirror
now
The
way
you
held
your
chin,
the
way
youā
d
bow
You
gave
me
courage
when
I
felt
so
small
You
were
the
ladder
when
I
had
to
fall
No
more
the
laughter
echoing
in
the
hall
No
more
the
comfort
when
I
made
the
call
But
in
my
heart,
the
lessons
still
remain
Like
blooming
flowers
after
gentle
rain
Oh,
your
love
was
the
anchor
in
the
storm
A
steady
fire
to
keep
my
spirit
warm
Though
you
are
gone
into
the
great
unknown
You
left
a
light
that
I
will
call
my
own
Iā
ll
carry
on,
Iā
ll
walk
the
path
you
paved
Your
memory
is
the
treasure
that
I
saved
Time
moves
forward,
but
Iā
m
standing
still
Climbing
upward
on
this
lonely
hill
Your
voice
is
fading
like
a
distant
song
But
in
my
soul,
youā
ve
been
here
all
along
Iā
ll
find
the
strength
to
dry
these
falling
tears
And
honor
you
throughout
the
coming
years
Oh,
your
love
was
the
anchor
in
the
storm
A
steady
fire
to
keep
my
spirit
warm
Though
you
are
gone
into
the
great
unknown
You
left
a
light
that
I
will
call
my
own
Iā
ll
carry
on,
Iā
ll
walk
the
path
you
paved
Your
memory
is
the
treasure
that
I
saved
Rest
now,
grandma,
sleep
in
endless
peace
May
all
your
struggles
find
a
sweet
release
Iā
ll
see
you
soon
upon
the
other
side
With
nothing
left
to
fear
and
naught
to
hide
Goodbye,
my
love
Goodbye,
my
light
Rest
well (
Fading
piano
notes)
