John's Victory Song

 This song is dedicated with much love to the Greg and Debbie Roberts family and to his buddy, Caleb.

 

 It seemed like only yesterday

we offered thanks as we prayed

Yah gave us a fine young son

 what a special day

and oh, how you blessed us

down through the years

you were mom and dad's little helper

oh, John, we miss you dear

 

Even though your life was short

you had a heart that was grown

by the way you treated others

we now see the seed you'd sown

I pray it is a lesson that

we will all learn

when you do good unto the least of these

you've done it unto me says the word.

 

Chorus:

One more name has been sealed in glory

oh, how the angels rejoice around the throne

there is dancing in the streets of glory

John they are singing your victory song.

 

So many people tell us

John was my best friend

you had a sense of other's needs

always a hand to lend

you took on this character

at such a young age

and we are thankful to the Father

as we offer up our praise.

 

Chorus:

That your name has been sealed in glory

oh, how the angels rejoice around the throne

there is dancing in the streets of glory

John they are singing your victory song.

 

John they are singing your victory song

gonna welcome you home

John they are singing your victory song.
