The tide recedes but leaves behind
Bright seashells on the sand.
The sun goes down,
But gentle warmth still lingers on the land.
The music stops,
And yet it echoes on in sweet refrains…
For every joy that passes
Something beautiful remains.
Those who live in the Lord never see each other for the last time.
