Gentle the Journey

Let me sit down beside you, and give you my hand
You can tell me your story, and I'll understand;
All your questions and sorrows, when you feel all alone,
Let me gentle your journey home.

Although we seem strangers, I know very well,
How you long to be comforted, long to be held;
If you let go the fears and the doubts that seem  true,
I can gentle this journey for you.

As you dream of the ones whose love you have known,
Both those who are here, and the ones who have gone;
You'll be filled with a light and a peace that will come,
As they gentle your journey home.

Let me sing you a lullabye from heart to heart,
This isn't the end, but it is a new start;
Let me wrap you in song, as the past fades away,
We can look to a brand new day.
