I See Everything

I See Everything - La Dispute[00:00:00]

Like any morning of my[00:00:08]

Junior year[00:00:10]

I stumble in the classroom[00:00:11]

Late but this day I see[00:00:13]

Faces I feel[00:00:15]

An air like a funeral[00:00:16]

Like a wake[00:00:17]

As I sit down[00:00:18]

Teacher speaking[00:00:20]

Somewhat sombrely[00:00:21]

But still confident and calm[00:00:23]

Part eulogy[00:00:25]

Her speech and[00:00:26]

Part poem part celebration song[00:00:28]

Her warmth and smile[00:00:29]

She passes photocopies[00:00:31]

Out to us of entries[00:00:32]

From a journal[00:00:34]

Kept so long ago[00:00:35]

She starts to read[00:00:37]

And suddenly[00:00:38]

It's 1980[00:00:40]

March 5[00:00:42]

The cancer is furious[00:00:43]

But our son is resilient[00:00:45]

We have all the faith[00:00:47]

We'll get through this[00:00:49]

No matter what the end[00:00:50]

Treatments are violent but[00:00:52]

He keeps on smiling[00:00:54]

It's amazing[00:00:56]

Finding joy in the little things[00:00:57]

April 12[00:00:59]

Andrew's appetite's improved[00:01:01]

And we thank God everyday[00:01:03]

But still it's hard sometimes[00:01:05]

To see him in that scarecrow frame[00:01:07]

July 9[00:01:10]

There's a suffering[00:01:11]

When I look in his eyes[00:01:12]

He's been through so much[00:01:15]

We've all been through so much but[00:01:17]

What incredible resolve[00:01:20]

Our little boy shows only 7[00:01:22]

Standing face to face with death[00:01:24]

He said it's easy to find people[00:01:26]

Who have suffered worse than him[00:01:29]

"Like Jesus suffered worse than anyone"[00:01:31]

He told me last night[00:01:33]

"When God abandoned him" and[00:01:35]

September 20[00:01:37]

We've been playing in the yard[00:01:39]

Lately his spirits are high[00:01:41]

Although his blood counts aren't[00:01:43]

October 14[00:01:46]

He feels tired all the time[00:01:47]

November 30[00:01:49]

At the hospital again[00:01:50]

It feels like home when we're here[00:01:52]

December 8[00:01:54]

He's getting worse [00:01:56]

January 19[00:01:59]

We buried our son today[00:02:03]

Our youngest child[00:02:07]

And while his death was ugly[00:02:09]

We must not[00:02:12]

Let it scare us from God[00:02:14]

Abundant grace has restored him[00:02:16]

A brand new body[00:02:19]

And set him free from the torture[00:02:20]

Finally rid of the cancer[00:02:23]

Before the moment he left[00:02:25]

He briefly wrested from death[00:02:27]

Suddenly opened his eyes[00:02:29]

Said "I see everything"[00:02:31]

"I see everything"[00:02:34]

And I will never forget it[00:02:36]

The peace and the comfort[00:02:39]

You displayed through a pain[00:02:41]

That I can only imagine[00:02:43]

The loss of a child[00:02:46]

To the torture of cancer[00:02:48]

Help me[00:02:50]

Cause I can only imagine[00:02:52]

How you recovered[00:02:54]

Kept your faith[00:02:55]

And held the brightness of life[00:02:56]

Inside the smile of a child[00:02:59]

You had to bury[00:03:01]

And I will never forget him[00:03:03]

Or your steadfast faith[00:03:06]

No I will never forget you[00:03:08]

Now six or seven years later[00:03:10]

I'm devoid of all faith[00:03:12]

I am empty of comfort[00:03:14]

And I am weary of waiting[00:03:17]

Though I've felt nowhere what you have[00:03:19]

I see nothing at all[00:03:22]

Though I've felt nowhere what he did[00:03:23]

My eyes are closed[00:03:26]
