Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow, / but remember me in every tomorrow. / Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles, / I've only gone to rest a little while. / Although my leaving causes pain and grief, / my going has eased my hurt and given me relief. / So dry your eyes and remember me, / not as I am now, but as I used to be. / Because, I will remember you all / and look on with a smile. / Understand, in your hearts, / I've only gone to rest a little while. / As long as I have the love of each of you, / I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.
We little knew that morning, / God was going to call your name. / In life we loved your dearly, / In death we do the same. / It broke our hearts to lose you, / You did not go alone, / For part of us went with you, / the day God called you home. / You left us beautiful memories, / Your love is still our guide / And though we cannot see you, / You are always by our side. / Our family chain is broken / And nothing seems the same / But as God calls us one by one / The chain will link again.

I am home in Heaven, dear ones; / Oh so happy and so bright! / There is perfect joy and beauty / in this everlasting light. / All the pain and grief is over, / every restless tossing passed, / I am now at peace forever, / Safely home in Heaven at last. / Did you wonder I so calmly Trod / the valley, of the shade? / Oh! But Jesus love illuminated / every dark and fearful glade. / And He came Himself / to meet me in that way so hard to tread; / And with Jesus' arm to lean on / could I have one doubt or dread? / Then you must not grieve so sorely, / for I love you dearly still; / Try to look beyond earth's shadows. / Pray to trust our Father's Will / there is work still waiting for you, / so you must not idly stand; / do it now, while life remaineth - / you shall rest in Jesus' land. / When that work is all completed, / he will gently call you Home; / Oh, the rapture of the meeting, / Oh the joy to see you come.
Things don't just happen to us who love God / They're planned by His own dear hand. / Then molded and shaped and timed by His clock, / Things don't just happen, they're planned. / We don't just guess on the issues of life, / We Christians just rest in our Lord. / We are directed by His Sovereign will, / In the light of His Holy Word. / We who love Jesus are walking by faith, / Not seeing one step that's ahead. / Not doubting one moment what our lot might be, / But looking to Jesus instead. / We praise our dear Saviour for loving us so, / For planning each care of our life. / Then giving us faith to trust Him for all, / The blessings as well as the strife. / Things don't just happen to us who love God, / To us that have taken our stand, / No matter the lot, the course, or the price, / Things don't just happen, they're planned.
God's love endureth forever- / What a wonderful thing you know / When the tides of life run against you / And your spirit is downcast and low... / God's kindness is ever around you, / Always ready to freely impart / Strength to your faltering spirit, / Cheer to your lonely heart... / God's presence is ever beside you, / As near as the reach of your hand, / You have but to tell Him your troubles, / There is nothing He won't understand... / And knowing God's love is unfailing, / And His mercy unending and great, / You have but to trust in His promise- / "God comes not too soon or too late"... / So wait with a heart that is patient / For the goodness of God to prevail- / For never do prayers go unanswered, / And His mercy and love never fail.
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon, Where there is doubt, faith, Where there is despair, hope, Where there is darkness, light, and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; To be understood, as to understand; To be loved, as to love; For it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are pardoned; And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Come Lord Jesus, cover me with Thy Precious Blood, and fill me with Thy Holy Spirit, I love Thee Lord Jesus, I praise Thee Lord Jesus, I thank Thee Jesus, I shall follow Thee every day of my life. Amen.
Lord God, whose days are without end and whose mercies are beyond counting, keep us mindful that life is short and the hour of death is unknown. Let your Spirit guide our days on earth in the ways of holiness and justice, that we may serve you in union with the whole Church, sure in faith, strong in hope, perfected in love. And when our earthly journey is ended, lead us rejoicing into your kingdom, where you live forever and ever. Amen.
Incline Thine ear, O Lord, unto our prayers, wherein we humbly pray Thee to show Thy mercy upon the soul of Thy servant, whom Thou hast commanded to pass out of this world, that Thou wouldst place him in the region of peace and light, and bid him be a partaker with Thy Saints. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. "We have loved them during life, let us not abandon them, until we have conducted them by our prayers into the house of the Lord."
We humbly beseech Thy Majesty, O Lord, that as the blessed Apostle Andrew was once a teacher and ruler of Thy Church, so he may ever be our advocate with Thee. Through our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen. O Christ, Our Lord, Who didst beautify the most blessed Andrew with the grace of apostleship, and the crown of martyrdom, by granting to him this special gift, that by preaching the mystery of the cross, he should merit death on the cross; grant us to become most true lovers of Thy holy cross, and, denying ourselves, to take up our cross an follow Thee; that by sharing Thy sufferings in this life, we may deserve the happiness of obtaining life everlasting. Amen.
Love God, You blessed Elizabeth Ann Seton with gifts of grace as wife and mother, educator and foundress, so that she might spend her life in service to your people. Through her example and prayers, may we learn to express our love for You in love for one another. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.

We seem to give Her back to you, O Lord, who gave Her to us. Yet as You did not lose Her in giving, so we do not lose Her by Her return. Not as the world gives, do you give O Lover of souls. What you give you do not take away, for what is yours is ours also if we are Yours. And life is eternal and love is immortal and death is only a horizon and a horizon is nothing but the limit of our sight.
We seem to give Him back to you, O Lord, who gave Him to us. Yet as You did not lose Him in giving, so we do not lose Him by Her return. Not as the world gives, do you give O Lover of souls. What you give you do not take away, for what is yours is ours also if we are Yours. And life is eternal and love is immortal and death is only a horizon and a horizon is nothing but the limit of our sight.
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Our family is a patchwork quilt / A lifetime being sewn / Each piece is an original / With beauty of its own / The brightest patches may be new / And get the most attention / But the pieces that are loved and worn / Help give our quilt dimension / Threads of humor, faith and love / Will keep our quilt together / To last in love throughout the years / And wrap us close forever
The Lord is my Pilot; I shall not drift. / He leadeth me across the dark waters / and steereth me in the deep channels. / He keepeth my Log and guideth me / by the star of holiness for His Name's sake. / Yea, though I sail amid the thunders and tempests of life, / I shall dread no danger, For Thou art with me; / Thy love and Thy care, they shelter me. / Thou preparest a harbour before me / in the homeland of eternity; / Thou anointest the waves with oil, / and my ship rideth calmly, / Surely sunlight and starlight shall favor me / all the days of my voyaging, / and I will rest in the port of my Lord forever.
We seem to give them back to Thee, 0 God who gavest them to us. / Yet as Thou didst not lose them in giving, / So do we not lose them by their return. / Not as the world giveth, givest Thou 0 Lover of souls. / What Thou givest Thou takest not away, / For what is Thine is ours also if we are thine. / And life is eternal and love is immortal, / And death is only an horizon, / And an horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight. / Lift us up, strong Son of God that we may see further; / Cleanse our eyes that we may see more clearly; / Draw us closer to Thyself / That we may know ourselves to be nearer to our loved ones who are with Thee. / And while Thou dost prepare a place for us, prepare us also for that happy place, / That where Thou art we may be also for evermore.
I am just a little baby / And I didn't linger there; / I went straight to be with Jesus / And I'm waiting for you here. / Many dwelling here where I live / Waited years to enter in; / Struggled through a world of sorrow / And their lives were marred with sin. / So, dear parents, don't you sorrow, / I'm not held in death's cold tomb. / I have gone to be with Jesus / Wipe those tears and chase the gloom. / Thank you for the life you gave me, / It was brief, but don't complain, / I have all of heaven's glory: / Suffered none of earthling's pain. / Thank you for the name you gave me, / I'd have liked to brought it fame / Had I lingered in earth's shadows / Might instead have brought it shame. / 'Tho you miss me please remember / I'm of all God's lambs most blest; / I'd have loved to stay there with you / But our shepherd knows what's best.
