Tanee

I treasured every moment, from the day of your birth

To the second the Lord called you home from this earth

You had an amazing spirit, a light in the room

And a beautiful humor that chased away gloom

A sister, a cousin, a steadfast friend

A mother and daughter whose love had no end

Tanee, you walked with your eyes on the sky

Trusting in God as the seasons went by

You taught us to live and enjoy every year

To rest in His grace with absolutely no fear

I'm proud of the strength that you showed every day

I'll carry your legacy, my sweet Tanee

I miss the warmth of your hugs when you walked through the door

I miss your sweet love, I couldn't ask for much more

I'd give anything to hear you calling me "mamma" today

To tell you I love you in words I wish I could say

I wish I had told you how proud I was then

But I'll hold onto faith till I see you again

Tanee, you walked with your eyes on the sky

Trusting in God as the seasons went by

You taught us to live and enjoy every year

To rest in His grace with absolutely no fear

I'm proud of the strength that you showed every day

I'll carry your legacy, my sweet Tanee

You showed us a courage that came from above

A life overflowing with laughter and love

Now you're resting in heaven, safe in His care

And I'll find my peace knowing I'll see you there

I'll trust in the Lord just the way that you did

And honor the beautiful life that you lived

Tanee, you walked with your eyes on the sky

Trusting in God as the seasons went by

You taught us to live and enjoy every year

To rest in His grace with absolutely no fear

I'm proud of the daughter you were every day

I can't wait to see you, my sweet Tanee
