Remember Me

Speak of me as you have always done.
Remember the good times, laughter, and fun.
Share the happy memories we’ve made.
Do not let them wither or fade.

I’ll be with you in the summer’s sun
And when the winter’s chill has come.
I’ll be the voice that whispers in the breeze.
I’m peaceful now, put your mind at ease.

I’ve rested my eyes and gone to sleep,
But memories we’ve shared are yours to keep.
Sometimes our final days may be a test,
But remember me when I was at my best.

Although things may not be the same,
Don’t be afraid to use my name.
Let your sorrow last for just a while.
Comfort each other and try to smile.

I’ve lived a life filled with joy and fun.
Live on now, make me proud of what you’ll become.

— Anthony Dowson

When I Must Leave You

When I must leave you for a little while,
Please do not grieve and shed wild tears
And hug your sorrow to you through the years,
But start out bravely with a gallant smile;
And for my sake and in my name
Live on and do all things the same,
Feed not your loneliness on empty days,
But fill each waking hour in useful ways,
Reach out your hand in comfort and cheer
And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near;
And never, never be afraid to die,
For I am waiting for you in the sky!
By Helen Steiner Rice

Miss Me, But Let Me Go

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 for long,
And not with your head bowed low,
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me, but let me go.

The Wind Beneath My Wings

It must have been cold there in my shadow
To never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that’s your way,
You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength
A beautiful face without a name for so long
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

Did you ever know that you’re my hero?
And everything I would like to be.
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings.

It might have appeared to go unnoticed
But I’ve got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.
I would be nothing without you.

Did you ever know that you’re my hero?
And everything I would like to be.
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings.

Did you ever know that you’re my hero?
And everything I would like to be.
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings

Fly, fly high against the sky.
So high, I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, Thank you,
Thank god for you,
Thank God for you the wind beneath my wings.

Morning Has Broken

Morning has broken like the first morning,
blackbird has spoken like the first bird.
Praise for the singing Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the Word!

Sweet the rain’s new fall sunlit from heaven,
like the first dew-fall on the first grass.
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden,
sprung in completeness where his feet pass.

Mine is the sunlight Mine is the morning,
born of the one light Eden saw play!.
Praise with elation, praise ev’ry morning,
God’s re-creation of the new day!

Morning has broken like the first morning,
blackbird has spoken like the first bird.
Praise for the singing Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the Word.

Revelation 21- 1-5a, 6b-7

21: 1-5a, 6b-7

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth.
for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away,
and the sea was no more.
And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem,
coming down out of heaven from God,
prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,
“Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man.
He will dwell with them and they will be his people,
and God himself will be with them as their God.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes,
and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning,
nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
And he who was seated on the throne said,
“Behold, I am making all things new.”
Also he said “write this down for these words are trustworthy and true.”
And he said to me “it is done!
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end.
To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.
The one who conquers will have this heritage,
and I will be his God, and he will be my son.

What A Wonderful World

I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom 
For me and you
And I think to myself 
What a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue 
And clouds of white
The bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself 
What a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow 
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces 
Of people going by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, “How do you do?”
They’re really saying
I love you.

I hear babies cry
I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more 
Than we’ll ever know
And I think to myself 
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself 
What a wonderful world.

Yes, I think to myself 
What a wonderful world.
