Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Today we celebrate the life of a very special man.
Not just any man but a father to Gayle, Jeff, and Linda
a man who invested in ya, a deeply caring, Jesus loving man,
a devoted man, to the love of his life and forever partner Jan

(Verse 2)
Bob and Jan were a visible example of being one in their Lord
Their focus on each other and their sisters and brothers
glowed with the radiance, the benevolence, the willingness
to share that love with others like the Savior they adored

(Chorus)
It may be hard, but let’s celebrate Bob’s life today!
Although he will be sorely missed, his legacy lives on.
Leaving a mark on each heart in a very special way
A real forever friend, a once in a life companion

(Verse 3)
Bob Smith was a special friend and wonderful to know
showing Jesus love to those he knew, investing in their needs,
from Sunday school to downhill slopes, sharing big and little hopes
leaving scores of smiling faces, and planting healthy seeds

(Bridge)
There’s no need to only imagine what happens up above
No need for him to wonder what happens when he’s there
Bob has graduated to a life most of us still dream of
wrapped in the caring arms of his Saviors wondrous love

(Chorus)
It may be hard, but let’s celebrate Bob’s life today!
Although he will be sorely missed, his legacy lives on.
Leaving a mark on each heart in a very special way
A real forever friend, a once in a life companion

(Outro)
Many of us are better because of Bob
Many had the privilege of knowing him
Many will miss our friend and friendly brother
but we can be grateful for the time we had with him

Well done good and faithful friend
