lyrics

Watchin’ everyone grievin’ over a stubborn man
We all came to love
He’d never tell you to your face
But behind your back he made sure everyone knew your place

In his heart
In his soul
Shone a light, of you and I
As bright as gold
x2

We all knew this day would come
How do we move on, he was still so young
Left a dog and wife alone at night, but three strong sons
To carry the weight of the world, 'cause it’s too much for one

In his heart
In his soul
Shone a light, of you and I
As bright as gold
x2

Everything is taken care of in God’s plan
In every step we’re takin' we will take his hand

In the old days he moved away from the tides
Spent his working days down, deep in the mines
But he never could find anything like what was..

In his heart
In his soul
Shone a light, of you and I
As bright as gold
x2

His memory will never grow old
Keep shining bright as gold
x2
