This is not at all how
We thought it was supposed to be
We had so many plans for you

We had so many dreams
And now you've gone away
And left us with the memories of your smile

And nothing we can say
And nothing we can do
Can take away the pain

The pain of losing you, but ...

We can cry with hope

We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no
And we can grieve with hope

'Cause we believe with hope
(There's a place by God's grace)
There's a place where we'll see your face again

We'll see your face again

And never have I known

Anything so hard to understand
And never have I questioned more
The wisdom of God's plan

But through the cloud of tears
I see the Father's smile and say well done
And I imagine you

Where you wanted most to be
