I Hear Leesha Lyrics

I Hear Leesha

by Michael W. Smith & Wayne Kirkpatrick

on i 2 (EYE) (1988)

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 believeSmith Michael W - I Hear Leesha - http://motolyrics.com/smith-michael-w/i-hear-leesha-lyrics.html

Leesha's gone, but she will still survive

In a memory that I'm keeping here with me

Silencing the voice of mortal tradgedy

Listening to whispers of the soul

All is peaceful

Chorus

(Ed: Leesha was a girl who lived just miles from MWS's house in Nashville,

Tennessee. I'm not sure, but I THINK she went to the same church as he

does... Anyways she got hit by a car as I remember reading it.)

From Album slip

Leesha Heaston 1972-1988

"Her parents named her Leesha, but God named her 'Joy', and a joy she was

to all who knew her. Despite her trials, she spread the light of joy and

the smile of kindness wherever she went. Though she never made a B on a

report card, the most meaningful challenge she leaves is a legacy of love.

She had the gift, and cherished it faithfully, of loving loyally, widely,

and well. My sister was the best friend I ever had. She was a real person

who laughed and cried and loved and even failed sometimes. I miss her

deeply, but when I close my eyes I can hear her laughing." Heather Heaston
