DO YOU SEE ME?

Dwayne Allen Jack 1956 (Springfield, Illinois)



Can you see me?
I'm standing right beside you.
I will be with you always
for the rest of your life.

When you look in the mirror,
I will be your reflection.
When you are lonely,
I will be your companion.

When you are sleeping,
I will be in your dreams.
When the darkness comes,
I will be your light.

In the still of the night,
you will hear my heartbeat.
I will always keep you safe
'til my savior brings you home.
