When I must leave you for a while Please Jo not grieve and shed wild tears And hug your sorrow to you through the years But start out bravely with a gallant smile,
And for my sake, and in my name Live on and do all things the same Feed not y~w loneliness on empty days But fill each waking hour in useful ways
Reach out and be cheerful For I am waiting for you in the sky.

Theres peace and calm in the 23rd Psalms, with the Lord as your Shepherd you have all that you need. For if you follow in his footsteps wherever he may lead, he will guard and guide and keep you in his loving watchful care and when traveling in dark valleys, your shepherd will be there. His goodness is unfailing, his kindness knows no end. For the Lord is a good shepherd on whom you can depend, so when your heart is troubled, you IIfind quiet, peace and calm, ifyou open up the Bible andjust read this treasured Psalms

ITS NEVER EASY

Its never easy when one must go And one must stay - behind;
Its never easy, I know, I know It sears both heart and mind.
Its never easy, but go one must When comes the day, the hour; Its never easy, but if we trust, God will give strength and power. Its never easy, God knows this, too; Thats why He stays quite near, To help us as we stumble through
The vale of grief and fear. Its never easy, but take Gods hand
And pray till night has passed; Just trust nor ask to understand
And peace will come at last.
