Dottie Rambo's Homegoing Service 05/19/08 (part 10)

bill and I love a good song there's nothing more powerful than a great piece of poetry married to the right music because human minds tend to build roadblocks to the truth we argue with it and our me all the negative experiences of our most disappointing days to build a case to refute it but deep in our hearts we know truth still survives and if we let it truth can shape us into the person we were meant to be in the first place a graden true song has the power to bypass our human mental obstructions and go straight to the heart to deliver and confirm something eternal and to call us back to our original glory the lady in this box had the rare gift of a poet and an even rarer gift of being capable of creating both great poetry and composing the perfect musical chariot to carry it to the soul I stand in awe of that double gift yet she knew as most artists do that we hold this treasure in earthen vessels she knew that the song would outlive her and when her well-known name had faded from the lips of all who knew it the song would remain during much of her life here she was fragile she was no stranger to pain it gave her music pathos it had an undercurrent of homesickness in it and yearning for something she seemed only to glimpse now and then on this journey here something that on her best days her spirit knew she had to pursue as she put it there was too much to gain to lose many of her lyrics strained to see that something but today all the sunsets lie behind the mountain she's crossed her last hot burning desert of the soul and there'll be no more valleys no more Hills she is in a place where tears will never stray stay in the streets and although her house here may bear a notice of her passing she is in this new city where there'll be no wreath of death on her mansion door the poet has flown she now walks without pain or assistance through the hills that have been calling her for a long time the doors of clay burst wide open last Sunday morning and the angel set her spirit free to soar like a mighty Eagle there was not one single no vacancy sign to be found and miss Dottie now finally perfect has at last found shelter in the arms of God Oh Oh Oh Oh I hi Oh I love their tears are gone and their hearts yo yes ah house my Oh ah you
