The Eternal Bridge


All the tree stars have fallen 
But Gods freckles still shine for us 
Just look up and you’ll see them 
Together with the northern lights 
Still shining and dancing just for you 
I know you love to run free 
In fields of Passionflowers 
I love it when you’re fearless 
And laugh in my favorite melody 
Don’t be afraid sister 
It’s all gonna be okay 
I know you’re hurting too 
I can still feel you 
Some really beautiful moments you’ve had
Adventuring into unknowns and the new 
I’m proud of you
Here take these sunflowers 
Let them bring you joy 
Take my heart again 
She never left you
She never will 
I remember it all
All the magic beauty and joy 
I remember songs we loved 
Dances we danced 
Countries who greeted us 
Poetry and paintings
The nights under weighted blankets 
And France 
Oh I remember the pain and knives too 
And the deepest wound of my life that broke my heart 
And even broke my unbreakable spirit 
but
Don’t cry for me 
I’ll see you again 
On the other side of the eternal bridge 
We couldn’t get there from here 
I know we fought so hard 
We did our best 
We both did our best 
Eternity waits for us 
Is it wrong I wanna go there soon ...

I will greet you when you arrive 
I'll run to you 
Through fields of strawberries and passion flowers 
Under a sky of n orthern lights and Gods freckles
Tree stars will circle and dance around us as we embrace
And heaven will see tears of joy that day 
Jesus will kiss our faces
And welcome us back to our home 
I’ll show you my garden 
That used to hold a beautiful tree that was burned down 
But now there’s a foot bridge and a sparkling river and a tiny sailboat that holds my memories of you
We will stand there together on that bridge 
Fully Whole and fully loved and fully known
In infinite reconciliation 
With covenant redemption 
Where weapons of war are no longer
Where there is no more struggle, wounding or illness
Where fear cannot separate us and shame will have no voice 
Where our spirits will understand it all
And love will NEVER fail us
Let heaven come
