man of stone

Written in tribute to the memory of John E. Johnson. Thanks Uncle John .

V1

There was a man of strength I always knew

On his sleeve his faith he wore

But he’s left this world and it’s cares behind

And like an eagle, now he soars

V2

With a tender heart and smile on your face

You weren’t afraid to shed a tear

Memories so dear, in our lives that you touched

You showed us faith that had no fear

CH

Man of stone, you’re going home, the Lord has called your name

You won the race, and now you see His face

This world will never be the same

V3

Now you sing once again in your Home on High

Heavens Gates have opened wide

Just a matter of time we will join you dear friend

And we carry your spirit inside

BRIDGE

You lived many years for the Lord as your Guide

The life you lived sent a message to those by your side
