Beth was love

If you needed a hand, she was already there, With a smile and a hug and a covered-up prayer. She didn’t have to talk loud to be strong, She just loved you right… and you belonged. She had that kind of heart you don’t forget, The kind of soul heaven’s glad it gets… And the world feels different now that she’s gone. Beth was love in work boots, Beth was grace in a storm, Beth was “come on in” When your whole life got torn. She raised up her babies—Stevie, Rockie too, Tammy and Teri, she loved them through. And she took in sweet Iris, made her family whole, Beth was a home for every broken soul. Yeah, you don’t replace someone like that… ’Cause Beth was love. Beth was love. She was a mama to many, more than we can name, Never kept a score, never played a game. She’d show up for the hurting, the lost, the alone, Like the Lord put her here just to make it feel like home. And the laughter she carried, it stays in these walls, In the way that we gather… in the way that we call Each other “family” no matter what. Beth was love in work boots, Beth was grace in a storm, Beth was “come on in” When your whole life got torn. She raised up her babies—Stevie, Rockie too, Tammy and Teri, she loved them through. And she took in sweet Iris, made her family whole, Beth was a home for every broken soul. Yeah, you don’t replace someone like that… ’Cause Beth was love. Beth was love. And Roy… good as gold… still standin’ tall, Holdin’ memories close like pictures on the wall. I know he’ll miss her every day he’s breathin’… But she left him a legacy worth keepin’. Beth was love in the hard days, Beth was joy in the fight, Beth was the kind of woman That makes this world feel right. A grandmother, great-grandma, a light that won’t dim, She’s in every “I love you,” and every hymn. She loved deep and she meant it—every word she spoke, And we’re better for the love… that she wrote. Yeah, heaven got a treasure, And we got her name… in our hearts. ’Cause Beth was love… And that kind of love don’t ever stop. One of a kind… forever missed… Forever loved.
