Our Melody

Scott Whitby, 2023


I wish I could sing a song to you

So you'd hear your gift to me

A song I wrote but never knew

That words can be our melody

It's Mother's Day and here's a song

A gift from me for you to have

I wish you were here to hear this song

And could hear the gift you gave


You sang while you did the dishes

Songs like 'How Great Thou Art'

It felt like that was our melody

I never knew we'd be apart

Now it's so much more than a song

It's a gift to your little boy

A gift I didn't see for half my life

It's a gift that's greater than joy


I wish I could sing a song to you

Not right now...it makes me cry

A song I wrote but never knew

This song before you'd die

One day I really believe we'll sing

'How Great Thou Art'...you and me

No dishes to do, we'll sing as angels

And I'll sing to you, our melody
