For George...the quiet Beatle...


A Guitar Gently Weeping

there's a guitar gently weeping
with the news we heard today
a guitar that won't have gentle hands
holding it to play a haunting melody
with tender lyrics sung
this guitar has lost it's master
the "quiet one" is gone
but he's playing a new song
in heaven's hall tonight
and Jesus is all ears
as He listens with delight
He welcomes home this brother
who searched long and hard for God
and now has found his resting place
play on, George, play on.
