Flying Free
To Erina Tobing:
10 May 2008, you're now flying free towards The God you had served faithfully up to the finish line. Your life was a song that you had sang beautifully. I remember you asked me several times to accompany you singing "Flying Free" at GPIB Paulus. Now I understand why you like this song so much. This song is so you. You finally found the place you call your own and fly there like a bird, with no pain. So farewell Erina. May you rest in peace. See you "up there" one day.
Flying FreeThere is a place I call my own
Where I can stand by the sea,
And look beyond the things I've known,
And dream that I might be free.
Like the bird above the trees
Gliding gently on the breeze,
I wish that all my life I'd be
Without a care and flying free!
--
But life is not a distant sky
Without a cloud, without rain.
And I can never hope that I
Can travel on without pain
--
Time goes swiftly on its way,
All too soon we've lost today.
I cannot wait for skies of blue
Or dream so long that life is through.
--
So life's a song that I must sing,
A gift of love I must share .
And when I see the joy it brings,
My spirits soar through the air.
Like that bird up in the sky ,
Life has taught me how to fly.
For now I know what I can be
And now my heart is flying free!
