When I Must Leave You When I must leave youFor a little while;Please do not grieveAnd shed wild tearsAnd hug your sorrow to youThrough the years,

Reach out your...

The Broken Chain We little knew the day thatGod was going to call your name.In life we loved you dearly,In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose youBut you didn’t go alone.For part of us went with youThe day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories.Your love is still our guide,And though we cannot...

He is Gone (Remember Me) You can shed tears that he is gone,Or you can smile because he lived,You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back,Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left.

Your heart can be empty because you can’t see himOr you can be full of the love that...

Her Smile Though her smile is gone foreverand her hand I cannot touchI still have so many memoriesOf the one I loved so much.Her memory is now my keepsakeWhich with I’ll never part.God has her in her keepingI have her in my heart.Sadly missed, but never forgotten.

Remember Me Speak of me as you have always done.Remember the good times, laughter, and fun.Share the happy memories we've made.Do not let them wither or fade.I'll be with you in the summer's sunAnd when the winter's chill has come.I'll be the voice that whispers in the breeze.I'm peaceful now, put your mind at ease.I've rested my eyes and gone...

When Great Trees Fall When great trees fall,rocks on distant hills shudder,lions hunker downin tall grasses,and even elephantslumber after safety.When great trees fallin forests,small things recoil into silence,their senseseroded beyond fear.When great souls die,the air around us becomeslight, rare, sterile.We breathe, briefly.Our eyes, briefly,see witha hurtful clarity.Our memory, suddenly sharpened,examines,gnaws on kind wordsunsaid,promised walksnever taken.Great souls die andour reality, bound...
