Pa Albert Zama

When tomorrow starts without Pa Zama and he is not here to see, If the sun should rise and find my eyes all filled with tears, I know how much you love me as l love you, And each time l think of you l miss you so dearly. But when tomorrow starts without Pa Zama l will understand, That Jesus came and called his name and took him by hand. He said my place is ready in heaven far above, And that l have to leave behind all those l dearly love, But he turned to walk away a tear fell from his eyes For all his life he'd always thought it wasn't his time to die, He had so much to live for and so much yet to do, It seems almost impossible that you were leaving me, He thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had, If he could have stayed for just a little while, He'd say goodbye and kiss me and maybe see me smile, But then he fully realized that this could never be, For emptiness and memories would take the place of time, And when he thought of worldly things that he'd miss come tomorrow , He thought of me and when he did his heart was filled with sorrow, But when he walked through heavens gate and felt so much at home, As God looked down and smiled at me from his great golden thrown, He said this is eternity, and all l have promised you, Rest Pa Zama from all your labor.
