Loving Memories

September 19, 2020

For all the ones now left behind,
I pray that soon sweet peace you’ll find.

Your loved one now is with the Lord,
Has been set free and now has soared.

Your dear one’s absence leaves a hole.
It reaches deep inside your soul.

Your tears are real. Your grief is strong.
I pray your pain won’t linger long.

So many times throughout the day
You’ll call to mind the words they’d say.

So blessed by years that you have shared,
To let them go you weren’t prepared.

I pray for comfort from your friends.
May they draw close as your heart mends.

The Lord is close. He’s near to you.
I know His love is always true.
