I Am Not Gone

Verse 1:
Don’t stand there crying, don’t say goodbye,
I’m in the whisper of the evening sky.
I am the wind that calls your name,
The golden light in autumn’s flame.

Pre-Chorus:
When the morning breaks so soft and still,
Feel my love in the rolling hills.
I never left, I’m standing near,
In every song, in every tear.

Chorus:
I am not gone, I am not lost,
I am the fire that melts the frost.
I am the stars that light your way,
The peace that holds you when you pray.
So dry your tears, lift up your eyes,
Love never fades, it never dies.

Verse 2:
I’m in the laughter of the waves at sea,
The hush of night, the tallest tree.
I am the rain on thirsty ground,
The echoes where my voice is found.

Pre-Chorus:
When you feel alone, just breathe me in,
I’m in the song the sparrows sing.
No need to fear, no need to grieve,
I walk beside you—just believe.

(Chorus Repeats)

Bridge:
So when you wake and see the dawn,
Know in your heart—I am not gone.
Not in the grave, not in the past,
Love is the one thing made to last.

Outro:
I am the wind, the stars, the light,
I walk with you through endless night.
So when you call, just know I’m near,
I never left—I’m always here.
