I can still reminisce when we were young

We have shared eminent laughter and fun

The quarrels and the wars were gone

They'd been memories under the sun



Mama's enchanting lullabies and hymns

And Papa's tales of noble knights and kings

Whispering voices and great joy, they bring

Perhaps, only remind us every spring



Now that you've gone far and miles away

Please don't forget our yesterday

The crazy games we used to play

For in my pure heart they would stay



So, my dear brother, listen to this

It is your presence we truly miss

And if I'd be given an invaluable wish

It's to become a child again to feel the bliss



Amidst the roaring storms and tide

Don't be afraid, face it with pride

Lift up your head and never hide

For Jesus is there at your side



Whether it's a bright lightning sparkling

Or a very loud thunder resounding

Don't be bothered, continue praying

God is so good; he keeps on watching.



For if you cry our tears will flow

And when you're glad our soul will glow

We will be there to let you know

How much we really love you so



For your sad defeat is ours too

And your success is ours; also.

If you fall, we'll receive the blow

Because we care, that's how we show



Go on and sail beneath the skies!

Extend your wings; learn how to fly

And when you reach the heavens, high

Give thanks to God, and glorify



Be brave move on, discover, and explore!

Direct your mighty ship to every shore

Your sufferings and endeavor

Surely, will grant a wider door.
