THINK OF ME AND SMILE

Think of me and know I am with you,
Think of me and smile.
Think of me and know that our parting
Is only for a while.

On the days that you feel so desperate
To see my smiling face,
Just believe in your heart I am with you
And that Im in a beautiful place.

So think of me and remember,
All the memories in your heart,
And believe and know that this is true,
We are never really apart.

LETTER FROM HEAVEN


I didn't have the time to be all I could be
The Lord said it was time, that he needed me.
I had to leave behind all the family that I love
But I'm in my eternal home in Heaven up above.

I'm sending you this message for I know you're blue
I wanted to let you know that I'll always love you.
I may not be with you, but my love always will
I may have left for Heaven, but my hearts with you still.

I would love for my birthday, for you to celebrate
For I can watch from Heaven, I think it would be great.
Knowing that you love me is all that I really need
Please don't cry no more, my soul has been freed.

I know it's hard for you right now to really understand
But wait till you see Heaven when you take Gods hand.
Heaven is incredible, the lion sleeps with the lamb
Everything's so peaceful, I can't tell you how happy I am.

One day you will see all the wonders that I do
And I will take your hand and show them all to you.
We'll be together once again, to be a family
Living in the land of the Lord for all eternity.






FOR OUR MUM
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
It’s so strange that those we need
And those we love the best,
Are just the ones God called away
And took them home to rest,
But every time we think of MUM
we seem to hear God say,
Have faith and trust my promise
You’ll meet again some day

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 sorrow 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




IN OUR HEARTS
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
We thought of you with love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday
And days before that too.

We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.

Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we’ll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.

FOR LILAS FAMILY FROM SANDY

XXXXXXXXXXXX

If tomorrow starts without me,
And I’m not there to see.
If the sun should rise, and find your eyes,
Are filled with tears for me.

I wish so much you wouldn’t cry,
The way you did today.
While thinking of the many things, we didn’t get to say.

I know how much you loved me,
As much as I love you.
And every time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too.

But when tomorrow starts without me,
I hope you’ll understand,
An angel came and called my name and took me by the hand.

She said my place was ready, in heaven up above,
And that I’d have to leave behind, all those I dearly love.

I had so much to live for, so much that I should do,
It seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you.

I wish I could have said goodbye,
And kissed and seen you smile,
I wish I could have stayed with you even for a little while.

But then I had to realise, that this could never be,
Now emptiness, and memories,
Would take the place of me.

But when I walked through heavens gates,
I felt so much at home,
And then the lord looked down on me, from his golden throne.

He said, “this is for eternity, but I will promise you,
Although your life on earth has passed, here life starts anew”

“I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,
And since each days the same up here,
There’s no longing for the past”

My loved ones, please don’t grieve for me,
Coz I am truly free,
And I will wait for you to come and share my life with me.

So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don’t think we’re far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I’m right here in your heart
