Remembering Where He Is
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Lamar died on the fifth of July
His true Independence Day
He didn’t have to wait for the country to fall
The LORD our God took him away
God saved him from the day
Of trial that will come
To test all the men of the earth
Always faithful He did
What He said He would do
On the day that He gave him new birth
