Before We Met

I wish you could've felt how much mom loved you

And rolled your eyes with us when dad said "sons lets have a talk"

Sometimes it felt like prison but I wouldn't trade a sentence

Turns out he knows something after all

I wonder what you would've been like

Would you have beat or dressed me up

Your brother and I got into all kinds of trouble

Where we could've used your help

But don't you worry bout us now

The family's fine

But I wish you were around

You could've eased my mind

Through all the ups and downs

Or it might've been the other way around

We all wanna see you

But I think mom wants it most

So leave a light on at the house

Up there off the golden road

In our forever home

I can't wait til we can go

I know you know

But no-one thinks you're a mistake

Knit inside our mother's womb

In fear and wonder you were made

And now you're with your Maker

And I can't wait to hear

What You've been doing with our Savior

The family's fine

But I wish you were around

You could've eased my mind

Through all the ups and downs

Or it might've been the other way around

We all wanna see you

But I think mom wants it most

So leave a light on at the house

Up there off the golden road

In our forever home

I can't wait til we can go

As one big family

To the Father's feet

Raise our hands and sing

You can show us how

It's what You're doing now

Please don't worry bout us down here

My brother or sister

Everyone misses you

But I know we'll see you soon

And I'll take care of them for you

The family's fine

But I wish you were around

You could've eased my mind

Through all the ups and downs

Or it might've been the other way around

We all wanna see you

But I think mom wants it most

So leave a light on at the house

Up there off the golden road

In our forever home

I can't wait til we can go

Cause you went home before we met

And I'll be home when He lets me

You went home before we met

When I get home you'll be there waiting
