I knew her not, myself, you know, but saw her through your eyes.
Your love and caring did emerge, with pain tucked deep inside.
Sometimes we feel so helpless for the ones we love so dear.
The reason’s clear, we want to help, whether we’re far or near.
At this dark time, in company, you gather while you grieve.
Hold on to her through one another; this love will not leave.
My hope today, for you, dear friend, though distant you may feel,
Is to know God feels all your pain; His nearness is so real.
