Loving All The Ones We’re Losing

I’m very glad we’re still together you and me,

Although we’ve lost so many others,

So many, many others lost already.

Thank you Lord, for raising Lazarus,

And giving hope to all of us.

I touch you as I hold my breath,

Are you still breathing?

Yes, you’re still breathing.

Thank God! That you’re still breathing!

You’ll be with me a little longer,

Though the clock is ticking,

Predicting weeping,

Before this day is over.

I’m glad that we’re still breathing,

For one more day of living,

Forestalling days of crying,

Bewildered days of dying,

Losing all the ones we’re loving.

Loving all the ones we’re losing.
