Always In Our Thoughts, Forever In Our Hearts

An honest man here lies at rest,
as ever God with his image blessed
The friend of man, the friend of truth,
the friend of age, and guide of youth
Few hearts like his, with virtue warmed,
Few heads with knowledge so informed
If there is another world, he lives in bliss
If there is none, he made the best of this.

And life is what we make it, always has been, always will be

As round the rose its soft perfume,
sweet love around her floated;
Admired she grew while mortal doom crept on, unfeared, unnoted.

As time passes by, memories of you will never die

As you danced in the light with joy, love lifted you
As you brushed against this world so gently, you lifted us

Dear God, please remember those who have left the meadow we live in...and remember us who are still here

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal

Don't cry for me now I'm gone
For I am in the land of song
There is no pain, there is no fear
So dry away that silent tear

Don't cry for me now I'm gone
For I am in the land of song
There is no pain, there is no fear
So dry away that silent tear

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following paths God made for me
I took his hand I heard him call
Then turned, and bid farewell to all
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to sing, to play
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found my peace...
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief
Don't lengthen it now with grief
Lift up your hearts and share with me,
God wants me now... He set me free

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 and years
Think how she must be wishing
That we could know today,
How nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away.
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched,
For nothing loved is ever lost
And she was loved so much.

Don't think of me in the dark and cold
For here I am, no longer old
I'm in that place that's filled with love,
Known to you all, as "UP ABOVE"

Each night we shed a silent tear,
As we speak to you in prayer
To let you know we love you,
And just how much we care

Even as the sun goes down to the end the light of day, It's rising on a new horizon somewhere far away

Forever Loved Never Forgotten

Forever in my heart you'll stay
Loved and remembered every day

Forever young

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

God is here to take you home
Now you and I must part
I love you and forever
You will live within my heart

God saw you getting weary,
so he did what he thought best
He put his arms around you
and whispered come and rest

God took you in his loving arms
He saw you needed rest
His garden must be beautiful
for He only takes the best

God will bless and keep you in his care

Gone yet not forgotten,
although we are apart,
Your spirit lives within me,
forever in my heart

Grief is the price we pay for love

He is not lost our dearest love,
Nor has he travelled far,
Just stepped inside home's loveliest room
And left the door ajar

I cannot say and I will not say,
that she is dead, she is just away
With a cheery smile and a wave of hand,
she has wandered into an unknown land
And left us dreaming how very fair
its needs must be, since she lingers there

I gave a share of my soul to the world
When and where my course is run
I know that another shall finish the task
I surely must leave undone
I know that no flower, nor flint
was in vain on the path I trod
As one looks on a face through a window,
through life I have looked on God.

I stand alone on the sandy beach my tears flowing into the sea Because I know you're out of reach and no longer here with me

I thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday
and days before that too.
I think of you in silence
I often speak your name
All I have are memories
and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake
with which I'll never part
God has you in His keeping
I have you in my heart.

I'd like the memory of me
to be a happy one
I'd like to leave an afterglow 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 dry before the sun;
Of happy memories that I leave when life is done

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did But people will never forget how you made them feel

If I have to say goodbye to stream and wood,
To wide ocean and the green clad hill
I know that He, who made this world so good
has somewhere made a heaven better still

If I should go tomorrow,
it would never be goodbye
For I have left my heart with you,
so don't you ever cry
The love that's deep within me
shall reach you from the stars
You'll feel it from the heavens
and it will heal the scars

If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together
There is something you must always remember:
You are braver than you believe,
Stronger than you seem,
And smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is,
even if we're apart,
I'll always be with you.

If love could have saved you,
you would have lived forever

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

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 I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again

If we have been pleased with life,
we should not be displeased with death,
since it comes from the hand of the same master

In our memories and in our hearts, love lasts forever

It may be hard, but in time you'll see, For now I'm gone, don't mourn for me

It's always those who love the most,
who most miss the one they love
When comes the parting of the ways,
and clouds loom dark above
But tears will pass, your skies will clear
Then will you smile again
and comfort find in memories,
Which now bring bitter pain

Just close your eyes and you will see
All the memories that you have of me
Just sit and relax and you will find
I'm really still there inside your mind
Don't cry for me now I'm gone
For I am in the land of song
There is no pain, there is no fear
So dry away that silent tear
Don't think of me in the dark and cold
For here I am, no longer old
I'm in that place that's filled with love
Known to you all, as "UP ABOVE"

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy;
They are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
But by the moments that take our breath away

Lord, Shepherd my dad today
In green pastures let him lay
To still waters guide his way
Restoreth his soul, I pray

Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, we would walk side by side through life. But when I needed you most, I saw only one set of footprints in the sand. The Lord replied, 'I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you'.

Love is like a butterfly;
it goes where it pleases
and pleases wherever it goes

Loved Always, Sadly Missed

May the morning sun caress you,
The rains of change refresh you,
And the gentle breeze of His Spirit
Lift the wings of your transformation

May the roads rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of his hand

May you find comfort in the arms of an angel

Memories of you will never die
nor will they fade as time goes by

Not, how did he die, but how did he live?
Not, what did he gain, but what did he give?
These are the units to measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of his birth.

Now I'm asleep, I'm always here, So please don't weep. I feel alive, now I'm set free, You carry on and leave me be

Our hearts are filled with sorrow

Remembering you on this day, comforted by so many memories

She passed away like morning dew
Before the sun was high
So brief her time, she scarcely knew
The meaning of a sigh

She will always live on in our hearts

So many hearts were broken,
the day God called you home
It seems as though each one of us,
were left to survive alone

Someone who has truly touched us will always be close through the joy of memories and the beauty of love.

Sometimes God picks a flower that's still in full bloom
Sometimes the flower that is chosen, we feel He's picked too soon

Take our million teardrops,
wrap them up in love
Then ask the wind to carry them
to you in heaven above

Tears are falling constantly,
my heart hurts everyday
I think about your beautiful smile,
that I pray I see again someday

Thankful for everything she has done for us

The memory of a good person is a blessing

The pain passes, but the beauty remains

The sweet smell of your perfume
has slowly faded away
But all your helpful teachings
are always here to stay

The tears in my eyes I can wipe away, the ache in my heart will always stay

The tragedy of life is not death,
but what we let die inside us while we live.
Decide to be happy
Render others happy
Proclaim your joy

There is a special place in our hearts
for those we have loved,
for those who have loved us
without question, without a word or promise
There is a special place
where there is no pain or fear,
where love flows freely
There is a special place to rest in our hearts forever

There is no night without a dawning, no Winter without a Spring
And beyond the dark horizon
our hearts will once more sing
For those who leave us for a while have only gone away
Out of a restless, care worn world
into a brighter day

There may be times you miss me,
I sort of hope you do
But smile when you think of me,
for I'll be waiting for you.
Now there's many things for you to do
and lots of ways to grow.
So get busy, be happy, and live your life; miss me, but let me go

They are not dead;
their memory is warm in our hearts,
comfort in our sorrow.
They are not apart from us,
but a part of us
For love is eternal
and those we love shall be with us
throughout all eternity.

They say there is a reason
They say that time will heal
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel

Those we held in our arms for a little while, we hold in our hearts forever

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

Till we meet again

To me you were so special
Someone good and true
Never will I forget you
I thought the world of you

To the living, I am gone
To the sorrowful, I will never return
To the angry, I was cheated
But to the happy, I am at peace
And to the faithful, I have never left

We are touched by angels,
walk where angels tread
They will guard and guide us
through the days ahead
In times of sorrow,
as in the days of joy
They bring us hope and comfort
nothing can destroy
In the hours of darkness
when our dreams have flown
They bring us peace and healing
We are not alone.

We cannot bring the old days back,
when we were all together
The family chain is broken now,
but memories live forever.

We love you, we miss you, we want you to be happy
Go safely, go dancing, go running home

We still can't believe it

We want to tell you something
so there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of
but so hard to be without.

We've known lots of pleasure,
at times endured pain
We've lived in the sunshine
and walked in the rain
But now we're separated
and for a time apart
But I am not alone,
you're forever in my heart

What the caterpillar perceives as the end, to the butterfly is just the beginning

When hearts listen, angels sing

When someone you love becomes a memory,
the memory becomes a treasure

Where there is sorrow there is holy ground

With love, you are always in my mind

With tears we saw you suffer
as we watched you fade away
Our hearts were almost broken
as you fought so hard to stay
We knew you had to leave us,
but you never went alone
For part of us went with you,
the day you left your home

Within our hearts and in our memories, those we love remain with us always

You lifted up my spirits
When I was feeling blue
No matter what was happening
You knew just what to do

You were always the most beautiful flower in the garden.

You will always be in our minds and prayers.
