The Lord’s Prayer Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, the Power And the Glory Forever and ever   Amen.  

Psalm 91 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that...

Psalm 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

Always In Your Heart Picture me as I was, Full of life and love. Although not with you now, I’m watching from above. I know how much you miss me, And I miss you too. It was my time to leave, As each of us will do. Although not in your arms, I’m always in your heart. The precious love we shared, means we’re never far apart.  

Waiting In The Light When you wake up tomorrow And grief takes your breath away Know that I watch over you And walk with you every day Though unseen, I stay close We're never far apart The love we shared gives testament To all that's in your heart I see the way you struggle now To hold your head up high I'm proud of you because I know How very hard you try I wish that I could hold you close And ease the pain you feel I want so much to talk to you And promise that you'll...

AFTERGLOW I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one, I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done. I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, Of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun Of happy memories that I leave When life is done.
