I know it's a title that's been overused and probably used several times in this forum. I've had this one in my back pocket for a while but have been reluctant to share because I've only got one BIAB track involved. Nevertheless, I decided to share because of the amount of work that has gone into producing it!
This one was inspired by my co-writer Ron Helm's past work as a hospice chaplain and in particular individuals he has ministered to who strongly emphasized that they didn't want their loved ones worrying about them because they were ready for what lay ahead of them!

I played all instruments with the exception of the BIAB Cajon Folk Slow 8's Realdrums track which was used in the verses and first and second chorus
I also used Drums On Demand and EZ Keys for the main electric piano track

I still have work to do on the vocal effects and some mixing. Ron and I are both so appreciative of your time to listen and comment!

Goodbye

The sadness fades
As you start a brand new day
The sunrise comes and it takes you away
I know that time is sleeping
And slipping away
Our last breath here
Will be our first breath there

Goodbye don't cry I'll be alright
I'll wait there for you
Where we'll walk in the light

Now and then
Sometimes you will think of me
I'll show up in ways
That only you can see
Though time slips away
You'll still see reflections of me
Look up believe that Jesus
Is The One we'll see

Goodbye don't cry I'll be alright
I'll wait there for you
Where we'll walk in the light

It may seem you're near the end of the road
Just know it's not the end
We're not walking alone
The Lord is taking you to
A place that we cannot comprehend

Goodbye don't cry I'll be alright
I'll wait there for you
Where we'll walk in the light
