Death Closes One Door and Opens Another
Death is just a natural thing, like the closing of a door.
As we start upon a journey to a new and distant shore-
So let you grief be softened and yield not to despair
You have only placed your loved one in the loving Fathers Care.

Big Daddy
Big Daddy Youre Gone
But yet you live within our hearts
Big Daddy, well miss you as we pass your way
Well always remember each and every day,
Youre gone now, but yet you live within our hearts.
The love we carried strongly we dared keep apart.
We only wish that you were here with us.
But we know those wishful thoughts have gone to dust
Big Daddy, we love you today and yesterday
As well love you tomorrow,
For Big Daddy, our hearts are filled with gladness
And not with sorrow
Because we know youre at rest,
And now we know, Big Daddy, you have the best.
~ In Gods Loving Care
