We said a little prayer for you
still…He sent His angels, who came
and you donned your wings…and flew
now there’s peace…no more pain
And I think of you…
there…shining…like a precious stone
the eternal realms …filled with your voice
free from worldly cares…you’re home!
we miss you, but you were…His choice
And who deserves it more…
than one who sang and gave much respect
a lady…so esteemed and adored
of course, you’re one of…His elect
Rest on…Aretha…rest on!
for in our hearts, you’re never gone
yet…I just wanted you to know…
we said a little prayer for you
before you donned your wings…and flew
2Tim 4:7

Love ya!

Aretha had such a unique voice and delivery that made her songs so soulful and resonant. But I always sensed a feeling of sadness whenever I saw her in the public eye. While she could smile and crack a joke while talking of love of her food and cooking, that sadness was always there. She is free from that now. But we have lost a national treasure.
