Verses

When you are walking down the street And you’ve got me on your mind I’m walking in your footsteps Only half a step behind. And when you feel that gentle breeze Or the wind upon your face That’s me giving you a great big hug Or just a soft embrace. And when it’s time for

They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time or reason, Will change the way we feel. For no one knows the heartache, That lies behind our smiles, No one knows how many times, We have broken down and cried. We want to tell you something, So there won’t

God called your name so softly, That only you could hear And no one heard the footsteps, Of angels drawing near. The golden gates stood open, God saw you needed rest His garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best.

When I come to the end of the road And the sun has set for me I want no rites in a gloom filled room – Why cry for a soul set ? Miss me a little, but not too long And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared

They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time or reason, Will change the way we feel. For no one knows the heartache That lies beyond our smiles, No one knows how many times We have broken down and cried. We want to tell you something, So there won’t

What she suffered she told but few, She did not deserve what she went through, Tired and weary she made no fuss, But tried so hard to stay with us. Two tired eyes are sleeping, Two willing hands are still; The one who worked so hard for us, Is resting at God’s Will. Our lips

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

There is No Night Without a Dawning No Winter without a Spring, And beyond death’s dark horizon Our hearts once more will sing For those who leave us for a while, have only gone away Out of restless, careworn world, Into a “Brighter Day”

Along the road to yesterday, That leads me straight to you, Are memories of happy days, Together we once knew. A silent grief that’s in our hearts, No human eye can trace, For many a broken heart is hid, Behind a smiling face. A light is from our household gone, A voice we loved is

We Give Our Loved Ones Back to God And just as He first gave them to us and did not lose them in the giving, so we have not lost them in returning them to Him … for life is eternal, love is immortal, death is only a horizon … and a horizon is nothing

God saw you getting tired, And a cure was not to be; So he put his arms around you, And whispered, “Come to me”. With tearful eyes we watched you, And saw you pass away; Although we loved you dearly, We could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands to

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’s 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

Though happily each year had begun, I had to die whilst very young. It is so long since our last touch, And I miss your presence there so much. Of many things I needed to learn, So to this place, God made me turn. Yet with so many things to do, I have taken this

Guardian Angel from Heaven so bright, Watching beside me to lead me aright, Fold thy wings round me, and guard me with love, Softly sing songs to me of heaven above. Amen

Death leaves heartache No one can heal, Memories are treasures No one can steal, Some may forget you Now that you are gone, But we will remember No matter how long. You will always stay loved and remembered, In every way, No tears, no verse, Can ever say how much we miss you every day.

Now the labourer’s task is over, now the battle day is past. Now upon the farther shore lands the voyager at last. Father, in Thy gracious keeping, leave us now thy servant sleeping.

Don’t remember me with sadness, Don’t remember me with tears, Remember all the laughter, We’ve shared throughout the years. Now I am contented That my life it was worthwhile, Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile. When you are walking down the street And you’ve got me on your mind, I’m

Gone are the days we used to share, But in our hearts you are always there. The gates of memory will never close, We miss you more than anyone knows. With tender love and deep regret, We who love you will never forget.

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along a beach with the Lord. Across the sky flawed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him and one to the Lord. This really bothered him and he questioned the

Don’t think of her as gone away, her journey’s just begun, Life holds so many facets, this earth is only one. Just think of her as resting, from the sorrows and the tears, In a place of warmth and comfort, where there are no days or years. Think how she must be wishing, that we

You’ve just walked on ahead of me And I’ve got to understand You must release the ones you love And let go of their hand. I try and cope the best I can But I’m missing you so much If I could only see you And once more feel your touch. Yes, you’ve just walked

We hold you close within our hearts, And there you shall remain, To walk with us throughout our lives, Until we meet again. So rest in peace dear loved one, And thanks for all you’ve done, We pray that God has given you, The crown you’ve truly won.

Please don’t be unhappy because I’m out of sight Remember I am with you morning, noon and night. The day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through, God picked me up and hugged me and said, “Many welcome home to you”. And when it’s time for you to go from your body to be

The Lord is my Shepherd, I’ll not want, He makes me down to lie, In pastures green he leadeth me, The quiet waters by. My soul he doth restore again, And me to walk doth make. Within the path of righteousness, E’en for his own name’s sake. Yea though I walk in death’s dark vale,

I have a place in Heaven Please don’t sing sad songs for me, Forget your grief and Fears, For I am in a perfect place, Away from pain and tears. It’s far away from hunger And hurt and want and pride, I have a place in Heaven With the Master at my side. My life

We thought of you with love today. But that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday. And days before that too. We think of you in silence. We often speak your name. Now all we have is memories. And your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake. With which we’ll never part.

If Roses grow in Heaven Lord, please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Mother’s arms and tell her they’re from me. Tell her that I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while. Because remembering her is

I am home in Heaven, dear ones. Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty In the everlasting light. Al the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last. There is work still waiting for you, So you

God grant me the Serenity to Accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

You are not forgotten Nor will you ever be No one can fill you vacant place. Looking back with memories upon the path you trod We bless the time we had with you And leave the rest to God.

There is a special Angel in Heaven that is part of me. It is not where I wanted him but where God wanted him to be. He was there but just a moment like a night-time shooting star. And though he is in Heaven he isn’t very far. He touched the heart of many like only an Angel can

We’ll always remember that special smile, that caring heart, that warm embrace, you always gave us. You being there for Mom and us through good and bad times, no matter what. We’ll always remember you Dad because, they’re never be another one to replace you in our hearts, and the love we will always have for you.

She always leaned to watch for us Anxious if we were late, In winter by the window, In summer by the gate. And though we mocked her tenderly, Who had such foolish care, The long way home would seem more safe, Because she waited there. Her thought were all so full of us, She never

I am home in heaven dear ones, oh so happy and so bright. There is perfect joy and beauty, in this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, every restless yearning past. I am now at peace forever, safely home in heaven at last. Dear ones, do not grieve so sorely, for I love you dearly still.

God looked around his garden and found an empty place. He then looked down upon this earth and saw your tired face. He put His arms around you and lifted you to rest. God’s garden must be beautiful He always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain, He knew that you

May the road rise up to meet you, May the wind be always at your back, May the sun shine warm upon your face, And the rains fall soft upon your fields, And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Little did we know that morning God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you,

I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one I’d like to leave an after glow of smiles when life is done. I’d like to leave an echo, whispering softly down the ways. Of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I’d like the tears of those who grieve, to

Life is but a stopping place, A pause in what’s to be. A resting Place along the road, To sweet eternity. We all have different journeys, Different paths along the way, We all were meant To learn some things, But never meant to stay… Our destination is a place, Far greater than we know, For
