Remembering




 
God saw that they were tired
and a cure was not to be,
so He put His arms around them
and whispered, "Come with Me."
With tearful eyes, we watched them
as they slowly faded away.
Although we loved them dearly,
we could not make them stay.
Their lifes were not an easy journey,
with many stops along the way,
to give themselves to those in need
so they could make it through their day.
They played many roles throughout their lives,
spouse, mother, father, child, sister, brother, soldier, and my friend.
There is an empty place in our lives
as we see such an important life end.
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands are at rest.
But sorrow is softened in knowing
They trusted in Jesus Christ, they are Blessed!
