Legacy (In Memoriam)
Saturday morning
Every hand you've held is here
You've cheered our spirits you've calmed our fears
Even in mourning
We can't help but smile through the tears
Now you're gone, but we feel you here
You'll rest by the wayside
Blessed by the way you loved in stride
American story of a good man who died
You leave a legacy of love
That carries all of us
We'll meet again in that good day
Thank you for your legacy of love
You'll watch us from above
And we will follow you in your way
We tell the stories
We heard a thousand times before
Wonderfully strange, yet somehow true
We know the magic
Our sense of adventure comes from you
Beautiful father, we miss you
You'll rest by the wayside
Blessed by the way you loved in stride
American story of a good man who died
You leave a legacy of love
That carries all of us
We'll meet again in that good day
Thank you for your legacy of love
You'll watch us from above
And we will follow you in your way
Sometimes I'll still talk to you
Speaking to the sky knowing you're nearby
I'll go through the books you wrote
You're in every word, kept in each verse
I'm humbled by the man you were
I'm grateful for the lessons I learned
A dedicated instrument, you were God's hands
And in the times when life gets hard
I'll think of you, and where you are
I'll follow faithfully, the best of plans
You're not far, and I hope someday
To be where you are
You'll rest by the wayside
Blessed by the way you loved in stride
No empty chairs in our heavenly home, abide
You leave a legacy of love
That carries all of us
We'll meet again in that good day
Thank you for your legacy of love
You'll watch us from above
And we will follow you in your way
Every hand you've held is here
You've cheered our spirits you've calmed our fears
Even in mourning
We can't help but smile through the tears
Now you're gone, but we feel you here
You'll rest by the wayside
Blessed by the way you loved in stride
American story of a good man who died
You leave a legacy of love
That carries all of us
We'll meet again in that good day
Thank you for your legacy of love
You'll watch us from above
And we will follow you in your way
We tell the stories
We heard a thousand times before
Wonderfully strange, yet somehow true
We know the magic
Our sense of adventure comes from you
Beautiful father, we miss you
You'll rest by the wayside
Blessed by the way you loved in stride
American story of a good man who died
You leave a legacy of love
That carries all of us
We'll meet again in that good day
Thank you for your legacy of love
You'll watch us from above
And we will follow you in your way
Sometimes I'll still talk to you
Speaking to the sky knowing you're nearby
I'll go through the books you wrote
You're in every word, kept in each verse
I'm humbled by the man you were
I'm grateful for the lessons I learned
A dedicated instrument, you were God's hands
And in the times when life gets hard
I'll think of you, and where you are
I'll follow faithfully, the best of plans
You're not far, and I hope someday
To be where you are
You'll rest by the wayside
Blessed by the way you loved in stride
No empty chairs in our heavenly home, abide
You leave a legacy of love
That carries all of us
We'll meet again in that good day
Thank you for your legacy of love
You'll watch us from above
And we will follow you in your way
