“Missing”
Your brother is missing
The pain is intense
And from such deep sorrow
There is no defense
Your chest is so heavy
You ache deep within
Just when will the healing
Of your heart begin
Jehovah is near you
Your anguish is known
And though you are hurting
You are not alone
At present your sorrow
Weighs down your heart
You feel that the pressure
Will never depart
Yet moment by moment
As day follows day
One day you’ll discover
It’s been eased away
Your loss now here present
Will leave you one day
Yet lifetimes of memories
Are with you to stay
So lean on Jehovah
His comfort you’ll feel
In his arms you’re gathered
He’ll help you to heal.
