"SITTING  IN  THE  SWING"
How often he would sit out in the swing
Sometimes you could hear him sing
Songs of praise to the Lord above
Thanking Him for His precious love

In the early morning there he would be
Sitting in the swing by the big oak tree
There he would sit to meditate and pray
Asking the Lord to show him the way

Cancer did not defeat him all
He never swayed from his Father's call
Hours still were spent out on the swing
Praising and thanking Jesus the King

Now no one is sitting out in the swing
For Dad went home to be with the King
The swing sits now--so empty and still
Where once a great man sought his Lord's Will
