Did the Music Start?

[Verse 1] When the room went quiet and your hands grew still, And the world stood frozen on a lonely hill, Did the light reach down through the twilight skies To brush the tears from our heavy eyes? I imagine the pain just drifted away, Like morning mist at the break of day, And a gentle peace like I’ve never known Wrapped around your shoulders to lead you home. [Chorus] When you got to Heaven, did the music start? Did it heal the ache in your tired heart? Did you see old friends who were waiting there, Free from the weight of every care? When you got to Heaven, did the music start? Did it hold your soul and mend your heart? [Verse 2] I hope you walked through a golden field, Where every broken thing was healed, And listened close as the angels sang, While silver bells in the distance rang. It’s hard down here in the quiet space, Looking for the shadow of your smiling face. The world keeps moving, but time stands still, And we miss you now, and we always will. [Bridge] Yet I hold the thought, through the darkest night, That you’re safe and sound in the warm, clear light, Watching over us as the days roll by, Just a whisper away in the open sky. [Chorus] When you got to Heaven, did the music start? Did it heal the ache in your tired heart? Did you see old friends who were waiting there, Free from the weight of every care? When you got to Heaven, did the music start? Did it hold your soul and mend your heart? [Outro] So sleep in peace till our work is through, Till the day we’re called to be back with you. We’ll carry your memory, proud and strong, Right here in the heart where you belong.
