For my Dad. I miss you old man!
Hunting season brings with it many memories of my dad, as well as this last birthday.
St. George SunriseFor Joseph Arthur Terry Sr.written and composed by Kathy Rogers1st verseHello old friend,
Its always good to see you.
I’ve needed your smile,
I’ve longed for your touch.
Our precious time
Together goes so quickly.
You haven’t long to stay.
Lets share this perfect day.
2nd verseTake hold of my hand,
Run with me in the red sand.
Capture the dunes
And be King of the hill.
Look out and see
The view is never ending.
The sandstone canyons call,
“Come scale the highest wall.”
ChorusSo goodbye for awhile
I’ll be seeing your smile,
When sunlight shines over the ridge.
To remind me, my friend
That our love never ends,
The St. George Sun will Rise.
In True Blue Dixie Skies.
3rd verseLook at the Stars
Together we will name them.
Will you name one for me,
In Every Galaxy.
(there's a little more to this verse, Lyndy will get the rest to me later)This song was written for my dad before he died. A very talented lady I know wrote it. My cousins, aunt and uncle sang it for him for the first time in their living room. It was also performed at his grave site and the
St. George Relay for Life in 2001. I wish I could put the music on here with the words.
Maybe when Lyndy gets more time she can record this song like she has her other songs. And then I'll post the music. Thanks Lynd!
(This was over three years ago at his grave.)Love you Dad!
