Lyrics
In The Arms Of Henry?s Love ©James Gordon 2005
It was Henry that taught us that the soil all around
Is nurtured when a big tree falls.
And in that cycle of life that he lived to the fullest
Falling?s just a part of it all.
Roots run deep, branches spread far
There?s so much that lives on.
We?ll find comfort in his shade, hear his leaves in a breeze
Long after Henry is gone.
Let?s water a smile with our tears
It?ll grow to be as big and as strong as his hug. You can?t measure how much we?ve all grown
safely wrapped in the arms of Henry?s love.
Henry has gone up ahead just a little
to mark a new trail in the forest
He?s sowing seeds, planting courage and hope
Making everything beautiful for us
Henry?s last journey?s not one of his choosing
But he?s walked it with wisdom and grace
And like all of his walks, his light footprint
Made sure that he left this a finer place.
