Verse: 12
God took him/her home, it was His will,
But in our hearts we love him/her still;
His/her memory is as dear today
As in the hour he/she passed away,
We often sit and think of him/her
When we are all alone,
For memory is he only friend
That grief can call its own.
Verse : 26
There the buds from earth transplanted,
For our coming watch and wait,
In the upper garden growing,
Just within the golden gate.
Though our hearts may break with sorrow
By the grief so hard to bear,
We shall meet her/him
Some bright morning
In the upper garden there.
Verse : 36
Gone is the face we loved so dear,
Silent is the voice we loved to hear.
Too far away for sight or speech,
But not too far for thought to reach,
Sweet, to remember he/she who was here,
Who, gone away, is just as dear.
Verse : 65
The years you’ve slept are many and
long,
Yet there’s never been a day
Unsweetened by the memories
You left when you went away;
And when at Life’s end the call shall come,
And us in turn set free,
How happily we’ll go with Him
To that longed-for meeting with thee.
Verse : 82
We bade him/her a last and fond farewell,
Ere his/her ship put out to sea:
And whispered our prayers for
His/her safe return,
But it wasn’t meant to be:
For God in His infinite wisdom,
Saw fit to ignore our prayer
And took him/her instead to heaven,
To rest, and await us there.
Verse : 85
We’re like all the newly blinded,
Bitter at our loss of sight;
For when you passed away, dear,
Death stole our guiding light,
Leaving us to grope in darkness
Down life’s lonely road, till you
Shall meet us at our journey’s end
And love, relight our eyes anew.
Verse : 86
When night draws its velvet curtain
Across heaven’s star-lit sky,
And the cares of day are
Smoothed away,
We look through memory’s eye
Down the road that leads to long ago,
And the sun forever set
And impress your face indelibly
On our hearts, lest we forget.
Verse : 101
God knows how much I miss him/her,
He counts the tears I shed,
And whispers ‘Hush, he/she only sleeps,
Your husband/wife is not dead.”
Some day, some time, my eyes shall see
The face I loved so well;
Some day, some time, his/her hand I’ll
clasp,
And never say farewell.
Verse : 106
No one knows the silent heartache,
Only those who have such can tell
Of the grief that is borne in silence,
For the one I loved so well.
Verse : 110
Her/His loving face
I hope to see again,
Though the days have passed away,
Sleep on, dear wife/husband,
And take your rest,
They miss you the most who
Loved you best.
Verse : 116
The way he/she talked,
The smile he/she wore,
And all the thousand things so dear
We loved about him/her while he/she lived
Haven’t gone with him/her from here;
They’re planted deep in memory’s garden
And watered daily with our tears.
To keep them ever fresh and vivid
Throughout all the coming years.
Verse : 128
God knows how much we miss you
And how hard it is to bear
Death’s separation, darling;
For he hears our constant prayer
That eternal rest in heaven
Be yours; and we, who mourn,
Awaits our joyous meeting
When we’re in Christ, reborn.
23rd Psalm
The Lord is my shepherd: I
shall not want. He maketh me to
lie down in green pastures: he
leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth
me in the paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake. Yea, though
I walk through The valley of the
shadow of death, I will Fear no
evil: for thou are with me; thy rod
and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
In the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil;
My cup runneth over. Surely
Goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life: and I
shall dwell in the house of the
Lord Forever.
Loving Memories:
Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly work 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 call fill your vacant place.
