Singing ReNee Home

My dear cousin Maurice's wife, ReNee left us in mid-October. She was surrounded by children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren holding her hand, stroking her hair, singing the hymns she taught them, generation unto generation. This is a prayer for ReNee.

Light a candle, the light has dimmed,
Light a candle and sing a hymn.
We're singing ReNee home.

Light a candle and say a prayer.
Turn around, she'll still be there.
We're singing ReNee home.

Light a candle, the light stays on.
Her grace and love within us strong.
We're singing ReNee home.

Light a candle, sing to the sky.
The beacon shines on, Heaven is nigh.
We're singing ReNee home.
