A New Star

Keaggy

My mother, she was a queen in her time and her children sang
No other could bring the meaning to rhyme as she did each day
We loved her and now there's a new star in her eyes
We wonder and long to be joined there on high, by and by

My father, he gave what he could provide, how he sacrificed
And of him, no better words could describe how he paid the price
We loved him, now there's a new star in his eyes
The wonder of them being joined there on high, sweet, by and by

My brothers and sisters have faith in His time, He will keep our lives
Together there is a place so sublime where His family thrives
Forever, now there's a new star in our eyes
We wonder and long to be joined there on high, sweet, by and by
