And Yet We Will Praise You

I pray for the mothers
fathers sisters and brothers
and all of the others
who can't understand

When someone so young
be it daughter or son
goes to be with the One
we know is so grand

We stood at the grave site
it never just seemed right
to say by and goodnight
or it's part of His plan

So as each year goes by
we find that we still cry
but always we will try
as best as we can

And yet we will praise You
because we still need to
it's all that we can do
standing here hand in hand
