Your Spirit

Remember Me 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 dayYou tell me of our future that you planned:Only remember me; you understandIt will be late to counsel then or pray.

“You will lose someone you can’t live without, and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg...

And Death Shall Have No Dominion And death shall have no dominion.Dead man naked they shall be oneWith the man in the wind and the west moon;When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone,They shall have stars at elbow and foot;Though they go mad they shall be sane,Though they sink through the sea they shall rise...

Isaiah 25: 7-9 And He will destroy on this mountainThe surface of the covering cast over all people,And the veil that is spread over all nations.He will swallow up death forever,And the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces;The rebuke of His peopleHe will take away from all the earth;For the Lord has spoken.And it will be...

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep   Do not stand    By my grave, and weep.    I am not there,  I do not sleep-I am the thousand winds that blowI am the diamond glints in snowI am the sunlight on ripened grain,I am the gentle, autumn rain.As you awake with morning’s hush,I am the swift up-flinging...

Epitaph On A Friend   An honest man here lies at rest,

The friend of man, the friend of truth,

The friend of age, and guide of youth:

Few hearts like his, with virtue warm'd,

Few heads with knowledge so inform'd;

If there's another world, he lives in bliss;

If there is none, he made the best of this.

Cowgirl's Prayer

Of all the things that come to be in life,

I pray LORD, please never let me know

the last time I will saddle my horse,

ride the pastures or tend to my cattle.

LORD, on that day, I pray you meet me to say

"Welcome home, your new trail begins here."

Too Soon This was a life that had hardly begunNo time to find your place in the SunNo time to do all you could have doneBut we loved you enough for a lifetime

No time to enjoy the world and its wealthNo time to take life down off the shelfNo time to sing the songs of yourselfThough you had enough...

She Shall Be Praised Proverbs 31: 10, 25-31

Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies.Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth no...

Another Leaf Has Fallen Another leaf has fallen,another soul has gone.But still we have God’s promises,in every robin’s song.

For he is in His heaven,and though He takes away,He always leaves to mortals,the bright sun’s kindly ray.

He leaves the fragrant blossoms,and lovely forest, green.And gives us new found comfort,when we on Him will lean.
