It's a new day for Daniel
The breaking of a new dawn
The sun is brightly shining
The clouds are now all gone
He has seen the face of Jesus
His Savior and his King
He is walking on the streets of gold
He can hear the angels sing
His little legs now take big strides
Bet he's grown a foot or two
And since his life on earth is over
He's a step ahead of you
Though Danny's earthly stature
Wasn't far from the ground
Today instead of looking up at you
Danny's looking down
He sees each and every one of you
Celebrating his life here today
If Danny could have some time to share
I think that he would say:
Don't mourn for me, don't cry
Life is too short to be down and out
Focus on the finish line
And what this life is really about
We have eternity to be together
Heavens splendor,words could never tell
Run the race set before you
Be strong, and finish well
My life on earth was short
But yours won't be much longer
Remember joy comes after mourning
And weakness makes you stronger.
So don't mourn for me, don't cry
There is much work to do
Take time to live, to laugh, to love
Forgive those have mistreated you.
Make the most of every day
Walk through the open door
And when you cross the river
I'll be waiting on the shore. RFF/11
