In God's
Garden God looked
around his Garden and found an empty place. He put his
arms around you and lifted you to rest. He knew
that you were suffering; he knew you were in pain. He saw
your path was difficult, he closed your tired eyes, When we
saw you sleeping so calm and free of pain, You've
left us precious memories, your love will be our guide, It broke
our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone. |

"Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die." |
