lyrics

People, turn your pages
Let us sing the closing hymn
Take leave of our brother and pray
That saints and angels receive him
I see a father crying
Mama's keeping it down
Got a baby sister wondering how
It's gonna be without you around

Nobody could know
The weight of your load
Nobody could know
And no word could ease the blow

Let us leave recalling
Our dear brother's tenderness
He said his heart was troubled
May he finally be at rest
I see the people flocking
So eager to console
But they can't fathom coming home to find
A son or daughter lying cold

Nobody could know
The weight of your load
Nobody could know
And no word could ease the blow

I see a thousand strangers
That need an explanation
They pray for redemption
To balance the equation
Now, I'm not blaming Jesus
But I'm not blaming you
I see no easy answer for
What you felt you had to do

Nobody could know
The weight of your load
Nobody could know
And no word could ease the blow
