From the recording Jeanne Marie - in Loving Memory (Release Date December 4, 2022)
Lyrics
V1 - Much more than a sister to me, much more than meets the eye.
Bright Life Force to your family, friend on whom we could rely.
The warmth of many a holiday I do recall. For days on end you
sacrificed comforts and for us all you stood tall, ya!
Chorus - Candle Light burning bright, light up the room, light up the sky.
So here you are where what you see is mirrored in your eyes ever faithfully.
Away from your sorrow, tell me, tell me, what's become of your grief? ya...
With the Lord's Redeemed you are, said you'd be waiting for us ever patiently.
Verse 2 - A certain thing did come to me as I battled with a sleepless night
An open window in your room, me and your mother an angel too, in
your eyes shone only delight
Smilingly to the Lord's feet you did go instead of recoiling back to the floor.
You asked me as if I'd been there before, why didn't you tell me! such unspeakable splendor.
Chorus - Candle Light burning bright, light up the room, light up the sky.
So here you are where what you see is mirrored in your eyes ever faithfully.
Away from your sorrow, tell me, tell me, what's become of your grief? ya...
With the Lord's Redeemed you are, said you'd be waiting for us ever patiently
Bridge -
Oh how you suffered yet strongly endured as we watched and prayed up 'til
the end. Children and husband to call you brave soldier and valiant friend.
Two brothers, a sister and your parents with tears recalling your joyful
history, oh how we smile on you still, Jeanne Marie! in loving memory! I said
we smile on you still, Jeanne Marie, in loving memory.
Chorus and Out - Candle Light burning bright, light up the room, light up the sky.
So here you are where what you see is mirrored in your eyes ever faithfully.
Away from your sorrow, tell me, tell me, what's become of your grief? ya...
With the Lord's Redeemed you are, said you'd be waiting for us ever patiently.
This word from you we do receive - in loving memory.
