If I could have one moment to see your face again,
I’d memorize your tilted smile, the angle of your chin.
If I could have one moment to feel your touch again,
I’d always remember the aging texture of your skin.
If I could have one moment to speak with you once more,
I’d remember the sweetness of your voice to my very core.
If I could have one more moment to pray as oft before,
I’d remember how it felt as we prayed to our sweet Lord.
If I could have one more moment of laughter, joy and tears,
I’d remember all the times we shared down through the years.
If I could have one more moment to let you calm my fears,
I’d remember how your precious whisper fell upon my ears.
If I could have one more moment to stand in your embrace,
I’d remember your struggle and pain in life is now erased.
If I could have one more moment to sit with you in grace,
I’d remember how tears no longer rain down your face.
If I can have one more moment, I know where I want it to be,
On Heavenly shores, with Jesus our Lord, and a sweet, soft breeze.
If I can have one more moment, we’ll rest together on our knees
Bowing before the throne we’ll worship, together at Jesus’ feet.
I love you! Dance, dance, dance!!
