There are many thing in life we cannot understand,
But we must trust God's judgment and be guided by his hand...
And all who have God's blessing Can rest safely in his care,
For he promises safe passage On the wings offaith and prayer.

"Don't"
Don 't spend too much time in mourning, Tears are for the sad.
I left to be with JESUS and this Should make y ou glad.
Don't waste your hours in grieving, No need to feel distress.
I am tired oflife's frustrations, And had to get some rest.
Don't vex yourselfwith questions, Or try to reason why. Life for me has ended, It came my time to die.
Don't lose the love I gave you. Feed it with your care. Grow it with devotion,
And spread it everywhere. Don 't fret because my leaving came in such a way;
We will have another meeting, In God's Eternal Day!
