I thought she was havin' trouble,
so I stopped to lend a hand.
I didn't see that wooden cross
behind her Chevy minivan.
I said "sorry ma'am" she said "that's alright,
most folks drive on past."
She told me the history even
"It's been 14 years today
And a year ago December when we
I'm not one to blame God,
but at first I took it bad.
Now I've learned to count the blessings,
every mo ment that we had.
"I don't come to mourn his dying,
but to celebrate his life.
Ya know, death can never stop a love
between a husband and a wife.
There's something 'bout me coming
here when I'm feeling lost.
When I need to find my peace of mind,
I just come to the cross."
I got back in my pickup truck and
Thanked God for a family and every
Cause who knows what tomorrow holds
or what's waiting round the bend?
And every time I pass a wooden cross,
I hear those words again.
"I don't come to mourn his dying,
but to celebrate his life.
Ya know, death can never stop a love
between a husband and a wife.
There's something 'bout me coming
here when I'm feeling lost.
When I need to find my peace of mind,
I just come to the cross.
