In Memory of a friend

In memory of Vanessa Triplett
It's hard to find the words to say
About the people that God sends our way
I remember just a few years ago
The day I stopped to say hello
I invited you to church with me
And I was thrilled that you agreed
A stranger walking down the street
Was a friend God wanted me to meet
We both worshiped God on one accord
And sang our praises to the Lord
I could see your heart was full of praise
And that you gave God glory in all your days
I enjoyed the fellowship we shared
And I want you to know I always cared
I will always have fond memories
Of the encouragement you spoke to me
I thank God for you all the while
I will always miss your friendly smile
It hurts to see our friends depart
But I will always keep you in my heart
