[intro]
Tribute to mom and dad (R-I-P) - I'm so glad for all the good times we had seems like you've been gone so long now I will not let you be forgotten. Good and Godly Christian family, built sound and moral character, for Sis and Me.

[Verse 1]
Mom and Dad, R.I.P.
I'm holding what you gave me
Laughing days at the table
Your love still stays with me

Sis and me, we remember
The prayers you taught us early
Good and Godly Christian family
Built on truth and mercy

[Pre-Chorus]
Seems like you've been gone so long now
But your footsteps live in us
Every lesson, every blessing
Still keeps turning us to trust

[Chorus]
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
Your love lives on in us
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
Your names still rise above
(we won't let you fade)

[Verse 2]
Sunday clothes and folded hands
Grace before the meal
Your hard-won sound and moral character
Made our broken hearts feel healed

Now when Sis and me are standing
In the storms this world can bring
We hear your voices in the morning
Telling us to pray and sing

[Pre-Chorus]
Seems like you've been gone so long now
But your footsteps live in us
Every lesson, every blessing
Still keeps turning us to trust

[Chorus]
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
Your love lives on in us
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
Your names still rise above
(we won't let you fade)

[Bridge]
If heaven sees what we became
It knows your work was real
Through every tear and every change
Your love is what we feel
And when my hands shake in the dark
I still hear, "Keep the faith"
So I will carry you with me
Till I see you face to face

[Final Chorus]
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
Your love lives on in us
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
Your names still rise above
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
Mom and Dad, I still believe
(we won't let you fade)
