Hello God, it's me again
Hoping you will hear my prayer.
You're taking all my loved ones
To live with you up there.
This man you see before you,
His name is Robert John.
I'm praying that you bless him,
And tell him, "Job well done!"
Tell me God, that you remember
The good things he has done.
The war, his church, his family
And the life lived for Your Son.
This patriot here before you,
Went to war in '43.
He spent 2 years in China,
So that others could live free.
Listen, Lord, to his story;
How he served you all his life,
And how his faith never wavered
When he buried his first wife.
He raised two sons without her,
Though he married once again,
And they both grew old together,
'Til you took Florine to Heaven.
Now his legacy continues,
Sons and grandkids left behind,
And in his 3 great-grandsons;
The greatest hero you could find.
So, Lord, please grant him mercy,
As he comes to live with you,
And worship in your presence,
In a body made brand new.
