Red Bird in the Rain

V4.5-ALL

Verse 1 Mama, you were spunky, funny, witty as can be, The life of every party, still the safest place for me. Tender-hearted, caring, always gentle, always kind, A love that left God’s fingerprints on everything behind. Verse 2 You loved those little red birds, finding treasures at yard sales, Laughing through the hardest days, telling all your stories well. And though your body struggled long, you stayed and gave your best, But now the Lord has called you home to His sweet promised rest. Chorus Oh, I’m gonna miss everything about you, The everyday moments that’ll still whisper your name. For nine whole years, my purpose was to hold you, And I’d do it all again, I’d do it all the same. But now you’re healed in the arms of Jesus, free from pain, So fly, Mama, fly — like a red bird in the rain. Verse 3 You loved your grandchildren dearly, they lit your whole world bright, Your laughter wrapped around them like a blanket in the night. And though our hearts feel broken, and the house feels strange and still, We know you’re watching over us — we feel you in God’s will. Chorus Oh, I’m gonna miss everything about you, The everyday moments that’ll still whisper your name. For nine whole years, my whole world was beside you, And I’d do it all again, I’d do it all the same. But now you’re healed in the arms of Jesus, free from pain, So fly, Mama, fly — like a red bird in the rain. Bridge You stayed as long as you could stay, And when it hurt too much, you slipped away. But Heaven’s gates swung open wide — And now you’re standing by God’s side. Final Chorus And oh, we’ll miss everything about you, But your love will live in every sunrise that we see. We’ll hold your lessons, hold your laughter, And trust the Lord to carry us tenderly. Until the day we meet again in Heaven’s home… Fly, Mama, fly — you’re never gone, you’re never alone.
