We did not see you close your eyes, We did not see you die, All we knew was that you were gone, Without a last goodbye, It was a sudden parting, Too bitter to forget, Only those who loved you, Are the ones who will never forget. The happy hours we once enjoyed, How sweet…
They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor 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…
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 free. Miss me a little, but not too long, And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared, Miss…
You can only have one mother, Patient, kind and true; No other friend in all the world, Will be the same to you, When other friends forsake you, To mother you will return, For all her loving kindness, She asks nothing in return, As we look upon her picture, Sweet memories we recall, Of a…

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free. I’m following the path God laid for me, I took His hand when I heard Him call, I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I…
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 paths of righteousness, E’en for his own name’s sake. Yea though I walk in death’s dark vale,…
You can only have one mother, Patient, kind and true; No other friend in all the world, Will be the same to you. When other friends forsake you, To mother you will return, For all her loving kindness, She asks nothing in return. As we look upon her picture, Sweet memories we recall, Of a…
