The Sound Of Letting Go

This is the sound of letting go.
This is the last breath I'll ever know.
This is the last breath I'll never know.
As I look up with my last breath, and I say:

I want to know what it's like
To walk in the footsteps you have made.
I will run my course, finish my race
Until I'm called home.

Death will bring the greatest day I've ever lived.
On that glorious day held off so long,

I patiently await the day when all is revealed.
When we speak these words
Eye to eye, hand in hand, face to face.
