The Ones Who Remain

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some roads wind through the valley low Where the weight of the world moves slow You learn to carry what you can And trust the Lord still has a plan When the ones you love are called back home You find a way to not walk alone [Chorus] We are the ones who remain Holding the light through the rain Every memory a thread that won't break Love lives on for their sake We find our strength side by side With faith to carry us through the tide [Verse 2] A brother gone across the sea Tim gave everything to be free And when that gold star found the door Nothing felt the same anymore Then two more hearts we held so dear Were called to heaven within a year [Chorus] We are the ones who remain Holding the light through the rain Every memory a thread that won't break Love lives on for their sake We find our strength side by side With faith to carry us through the tide [Bridge] James, when the silence gets too loud I swear I hear them laughing through the clouds Two generations watching from above Still wrapping us in love [Verse 3] Now James, it's you and me beneath this roof Living proof that love tells the truth We set the table, say the grace And see their smiles in every place The oldest son who stood so tall Still standing strong through it all [Chorus] We are the ones who remain Holding the light through the rain Every memory a thread that won't break Love lives on for their sake James, we find our strength side by side With faith to carry us through the tide [Outro] Memories are all we have to hold But oh, they shine like gold And we will keep them close until we meet again
