He was the best friend anyone could have had The reason he did what he did Was 'cause he hurt so bad And I know he's in Heaven, no longer living in pain He's under the shelter of the Most High He's out of the rain Lay your head down, sleep tight You'll always be in my heart My little brother for eternal life And we're anxious, but we know you wait We know you'll wait To take us by the hand, into another land Through those pearly gates And my eyes are filled with wonder and stories That cannot be told I remember the demons surrounding me And taking their hold He washed away my acid tears And fought the fight that I could not fight Then all of the demons and fear Were consumed with his holy light I can hear the angels sing and now I understand I enter the gates of Heaven holding Jesus' hand Look, there's Daddy, and the animals talk And the lion lays down with the lamb Now I stand by the crystal river In the bosom of Abraham I will live forever With the First Born of the Dead I will live forever With the First Born of the Dead I will live forever I will live forever
