Robert Augustine Seidel III
West Point, 2004
Be Thou At Peace
Posted by Brad Paisley on January 27, 2007:
Anyone that knew Rob, knew that he loved country music. The last time Rob was home on leave, for a two week R & R from the war in February. Rob's family remembers him constantly singing this country song around the house.
WHEN I GET WHERE I?M GOING Brad Paisley/Dolly Parton
When I get where I?m going On the far side of the sky The first thing that I?m gonna do Is spread my wings and fly
I?m gonna land beside a lion And run my fingers through his mane Or I might find out what it?s like To ride a drop a rain
Yeah when I get where I?m going There?ll be only happy tears I will shed the sins and struggles I have carried all these years And I?ll leave my heart wide open I will love and have no fear Yeah when I get where I?m going Don?t cry for me down here
I?m gonna walk with my grand daddy And he?ll match me step for step And I?ll tell him how I missed him Every minute since he left Then I?ll hug his neck
Yeah when I get where I?m going There?ll be only happy tears I will shed the sins and struggles I have carried all these years And I?ll leave my heart wide open I will love and have no fear Yeah when I get where I?m going Don?t cry for me down here
So much pain and so much darkness In this world we stumble through All these questions I can?t answer So much work to do
But when I get where I?m going And I see my maker?s face I?ll stand forever in the light Of his amazing grace Yeah when I get where I?m going There?ll be only happy tears Hallelujah I will love and have no fear When I get where I?m going Yeah when I get where I?m going
