He's Still With You

Child, cry not

Where sand and surf so meet the sky
You’ll find your father there
When closing eyes, you’ll dream and fly
You’ll find your father there
Where man and God do say hello
You’ll find your father there
Where you stand, but question though
You’ll find your father there

Cry not, oh child, for love resides
As a presence in your heart
His body may be lost to you
But, in you, he stays a part
