No one should have to endure this
There is no sense that can be made of it, it is the definition of senseless.
We can not let the soulless win. We must morn but also
continue to love and to create values and
meaning and make this world better for those who value life.
Think of those hearts who she touched.
Nothing loved is ever lost,and she was loved so much.
IT HURTS
If tears could build a stairwell
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to Heaven
and bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say good-bye...
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness
and secret tears still flow,
What it means to lose you
no one will ever know.
A PART OF US IS GONE
May you always walk in sunshine and
God's love around you flow, for the
happiness you gave us, no one will
ever know, it broke our hearts to lose
you, but you did not go alone, a part
of us went with you, the day God
called you home.
A million times we've needed you.
A million times we've cried.
If love could only have saved you.
You never would have died.
The Lord be with you
And May You Rest in Peace.
Amen
I AM WAITING
When I must leave you for a
little while - please do not grieve
and hug your sorrow to you
through the years.
But start out bravely with a
gallant smile; And for my sake
and in my name, live on and do
all things the same.
Feed not your loneliness on
empty days, but fill each
waking hour in useful ways.
Reach out your hand in comfort
and in cheer, and I in turn
will comfort you and hold you near;
And never, never be afraid to die,
For I am waiting for you in the sky!
SHE IS NEVER GONE
I am standing on the seashore.
A ship spreads her sails to the
morning breeze and starts for
the ocean. I am watching until
she fades on the horizon, and
someone at my side says,
"She is gone."
Gone where? The loss of sight
is in me, not in her. Just at the
moment when someone says
"She is gone," There are others
who are watching her coming.
Other voices take up the glad
shout, "Here she comes!"....
SHE WAS LOVED
Your gentle face and patient smile.
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.
The voice is mute and stilled the heart
That loved us well and true.
Ah, bitter was the trial to part
From one so good as you.
You are not forgotten loved one
Nor will you ever be
As long as life and memory last
We will remember thee.
We miss you now, our hearts
are sore,
As time goes by we miss you more,
Your loving smile, your gentle face
No one can fill your vacant place.
GOD CHOSE THE BEST
God needed an angel in Heaven
To stand at the Savior's feet;
His choice must be the rarest
A lily pure and sweet.
He gazed upon the mighty throng
Then stopped and picked the best,
Our child was His chosen one
With Jesus she's now at rest.
MISS ME BUT LET ME GO
When I come to the end of the road
and the sun has set for me,
Why cry for a soul set free.
Miss me a little, but not too long,
and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we
once shared,
Miss me but let me go.
For this journey we all must take,
and each must go alone.
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart,
Go to the friends we know
Miss me, but let me go.
very good
A LIGHT IS GONE
A light is from our household gone
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God gave you a beautiful daughter -
A daughter who never grew old
You were always there with a helping hand
Help us now to accept His plan.
We miss you now, our hearts are sore
As time goes by, we miss you more
Your loving smile, your gentle face
No one can take her place.
May the Choirs of Angels receive you
and may you have rest and peace
everlasting. Amen.
SHE IS A DIAMOND Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the
morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that shines
at night.
