Funeral Messages
If love could have saved you,
you would have lived forever.
<<>>
Until we meet again,
may God Hold you
in the palm of his hand.
<<>>
Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
<<>>
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.
If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
<<>>
Death leaves a heartache
No one can heal;
Love leaves a memory
No one can steal
<<>>
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 me - but let me go.
for this is a journey that we all must take,
And each must go alone,
It's all part of the Master's plan,
A step on the road home.
When you are lonely, and sick of heart,
Go to friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds,
Miss me - but let me go.
(Anon)
