Looking over the horizon, night breaks into dawn   I get a little misty eyed, knowing you've gone on   I've come to realize just how much your presence meant to me   I also realize that now you're finally free      I'll always love you for the special times we shared   All the times you let me know just how much you cared for me   I'll always love you, you were a friend that I could totally depend on   I love you and you're forever with me      The will of the father had to be fulfilled   I feel your spirit, your voice still gives me chills   The anointing is still touching today   I wrote this with a smile and tears of joy just to say      I'll always love you for the special times we shared   All the times you let me know just how much you cared for me   I'll always love you, you were a friend that I could totally depend on   I love you, you're forever with me      We used to sing together, cry together and laugh together   You said it didn't matter for God would always take care   You taught me how to give again, when giving seemed to be too hard   The benefits of your love were my reward      And I love you for the special times we shared   All the times you showed me how much you care for me   I'll always love you, you were a friend that I could totally depend on   I love you, you're forever with me      I love you, yeah, you're forever with me   I love you, oh, you're forever with me, I love you're forever with me   I could always depend on you, I love you, you're forever with me   I love you, I'm gonna miss you, you're forever here with me
