How Do I Say Goodbye?

When I heard the news tonight
I sat alone and cried
How do I say goodbye?
Going through the memories
My heart begins to grieve
How do I say goodbye?

So I lift my eyes to heaven
Trusting God knows what I need to say goodbye

You have helped in time of need
You have been a friend indeed
How do I say goodbye?
To a friend that knew me well
It's hard to say farewell
How do I say goodbye?

So I lift my eyes to heaven
Trusting God knows what I need to say goodbye

To say goodbye to a brother
To say goodbye to a friend
Trusting that we'll see each other
And that this is not the end

Someday this will pass away
When the Lord returns to stay
And things are new in heaven
All the tears He'll wipe away
And the night turns into day
And things are new in heaven

So please lift your eyes to heaven
And trust God is what you need to say goodbye

So goodbye my brother
Goodbye my friend
I'm trusting we will see each other
And that this is not the end

So goodbye my brother
Goodbye my friend
I'm trusting we will see each other
And that this is not the end

So goodbye
Goodbye
It's time to say goodbye
Goodbye

Someday this will pass away
And God will wipe the tears away
When I see you in heaven
I hope I see you in heaven
