I Hear Leesha

Michael W. Smith · Triple Feature [2010]

Seems like it was only yesterday

She was living here

Yea, she was living here

Lord knows why He's taken her away

It isn't very clear, no it isn't very clear

Into every life a little rain must fall

And losing one you love is like a storm

But storms are passing



(chorus)

I hear Leesha

Singing in heaven tonight

And in between the sadness

I hear Leesha

Telling me that she's alright



Life goes on even after life

That's what I believe

Yea, that's what I believe

Leesha's gone, but she will still survive

In a memory that I'm keeping here with me

Silencing the voice of moral tragedy

Listening to whispers of the soul

All is peaceful



(chorus)

I Hear Leesha
