Verse 1
Yesterday I lost a beloved friend,
My heart is breaking, not for the first time,
Gene, my most trusted colleague, to the end,
Professor, lawyer, human being sublime.
Verse 2
I prayed daily for God to help him heal,
And see him safe to loving family,
Pray faith now helps loved ones with their grief deal,
Now that God chose to heaven his soul free.
Chorus
In heaven now, but you’ll never be gone,
From hearts and minds you touched and grew upon.
[Verse 3}
He spoke, wrote, lectured truth not sophistry,
Generous, caring, noble, and most kind,
Each of his roles marked by integrity,
The kind of man and friend too few will find.
Chorus
In heaven now, but you’ll never be gone,
From hearts and minds you touched and grew upon.
Outro
The sun shines less brightly for me today,
And all whose lives you touched along the way.
