Jody
All he wanted was to be.
He tried real hard to comfort company.
He knew where he was, he knew how to go
When others would hurry, he'd go slow.
He knew when to talk. He knew when to listen.
But, he would win back what he was missin'.
Others would talk, laugh and have their fun.
But Jody was smart, he'd never run
He knew how people were. Two faces and false.
They thought he was dumb, they thought he was lost.
He always knew what others were thinking
Because he listened and stared without blinking
But let me tell you the way of his soul.
It wanted reality, it wanted to know
To know why. To know what went wrong.
Between him and his dad, his whole life long.
Jody would pour out his heart with love
And the only true listener was GOD above
And so the world turned and finally, at last
What Jody was missin' became the past
And his love shined through the dark
He was heard like a singing lark
One day, years ago, when Jody lay still
With his dad's true faith and our good God's will
Jody was back with the living, to fulfill his plan
That six year old boy, became a grown man.
Now, with Jody's love and his great faith
He and his family, have found grace
Jody touched hearts wherever he went
Everything about him was Heaven sent
As I write to you, this matter of truth
He looks down at us, with a smile of youth
JODY knows he will never be forgotten
And faster and further his love will be trotten
Jody, I speak for us all, we love you dearly and always have
Never again, Jody, will you have to be sad
We all know you're smiling, we know you are safe
We know your are in Heaven, with God's grace
Oh and by the way, Spreading God's Word
You done a great job
