A song for Grandma June from Sam

[Verse 1]
Grandma June, I still remember reaching up to see
Those tomato vines you raised grew taller than me
Butterscotch in every coat pocket, saved for when I came
You’d press one in my hand and smile like sunshine had a name

[Chorus]
Grandma June, your open door is still a welcome I can feel
Ninety-one years of kindness, every meal made something real
Grandma June, I hear your hymns above the laundry line
And when I miss you, I give thanks that your love still lives in mine

[Verse 2]
The kitchen held us close when winter pressed against the pane
You made a little room for every joy and every pain
I watched you hang the sheets and sing each verse with easy grace
Now every hymn I carry brings me back to that safe place

[Chorus]
Grandma June, your open door is still a welcome I can feel
Ninety-one years of kindness, every meal made something real
Grandma June, I hear your hymns above the laundry line
And when I miss you, I give thanks that your love still lives in mine

[Bridge]
I’m Sam, and I’m still learning what your faithful living showed
A generous heart can make a home wherever love is sown
So I’ll keep a light for others, keep a place beside the door
And thank the Lord for every year you gave us, and for more

[Final Chorus]
Grandma June, your open door is still a welcome I can feel
Ninety-one years of kindness, every meal made something real
Grandma June, I hear your hymns above the laundry line
And when I miss you, I give thanks that your love still lives in mine

[Outro]
Grandma June, your love still lives in mine
