There Has Always Been You
At the time each one of our lives began --
There has always been you
At the time our minds can take us back to our first memories --
There has always been you
At the times when young hearts grow and learn --
There has always been you
At the times life brings heartbreak and hard knocks --
There has always been you
At the times encouragement and love was needed --
There has always been you
At the times when family fun and memories were being made --
There has always been you
At the times when sadness came and support was needed --
There has always been you
At the time when we knew we would have to say our good-byes --
There will still be you
At this time our hearts are hurting with the pain of your presence no longer here
Yet we know, there will always be you
At the time when God will come to get His children we know --
There you will be
