Sad day in the Catholic church and in the Christian community Rip your holiness In Vatican's halls, where history's made A Pope's earthly journey, comes to a gentle shade A legacy of faith, and love so true A life of service, forever shining through The Cardinals gather, in solemn rite To bid farewell, and say goodbye tonight The Sistine Chapel's beauty, a fitting place To honor a life, of spiritual grace The Pope's final journey, a somber pace A time for reflection, on a life's sacred space The world mourns the loss, of a spiritual guide Yet celebrates, a life that served with pride In St. Peter's Square, a sea of faces blue Praying for the Pope, and his journey anew The Pope's legacy, forever in our sight A testament to faith, and love's pure light. May the Pope's memory, inspire and guide And his legacy of love, forever abide.
