The Suitcase In Our Heart
By Joann Ryan-Stanley
Today Is But A Special Day
To Give Thanks For All Life’s Blessings
Today We Bow On Bended Knee's
For Those Who May Be Missing
Our Loved Ones Near Or Far Away
Who Cannot Come Today
Whom We Miss On Christmas And Special Days
More Than One Can Ever Know
And God Understands
God Had A Plan
When We Came To Earth
From The Moment Of Our Birth
A Special Place Of Love And Grace
Was Held Within Our Being
God Knew That We Might Need It Often
As We Travel Through This Life
God Gave Us Such A Gift You See
The Suitcase In Our Heart
Each One Of Us Does Have It
It’s Filled With A Lifetime Of Love And Memories
To Help Us Through The Hard Times
With God’s Help From Above
Our Loved Ones And Our Families
And So Many Friends Too
And All The People Who Have Meant So Much
And Helped Us Through
God Filled The Pockets Of Our Suitcase
For Times Such As These
Our Suitcase Is Our Comfort
For We Are Never Alone
Just Close Your Eyes And Visualize
And Open It And See
It’s Well Worn Sides and Edges
Is God’s Gift To Thee…
