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.

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...

She’s in the Sun, the Wind, the Rain She’s in the sun, the wind, the rain,she’s in the air you breathewith every breath you take.She sings a song of hope and cheer,there’s no more pain, no more fear.You’ll see her in the clouds above,hear her whisper words of love,you’ll be together before long,until then, listen for her song.

She Shall Be Praised Proverbs 31: 10, 25-31

Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies.Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth no the...

FAREWELL

Farewell to Thee! But not farewell

To all my fondest thoughts of Thee;

Within my heart they still shall dwell

And they shall cheer and comfort me.

 

Life seems more sweet that Thou didst live

And men more true that Thou wert one;

Nothing is lost that Thou didst give,

Nothing destroyed that Thou hast done.

Remember Remember me when I am gone away, Gone far away into the silent land; When you can no more hold me by the hand, Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay. Remember me when no more day by day You tell me of our future that you planned: Only remember me; you understand It will be late...

In the scent and colour of flowersThat...
