Freedom isnt free; God grants all liberty Grace and mercy brings us through
Gods love is surely true-above all His peace is best Most of all He grants us rest.
In His grace He gives us all; with His mercy we shall not fall Justice is granted in flesh but eternal life is always best I love you Jack, I know you knew Besides my love, Gods love is true.
Rest in peace, youre in good hands A perfect part of Gods Holy Plan. Nephew, you were my all and all I loved you dearly through every call Rest in peace, your freedoms won And greet my son with open arms.
I Love You ~ Tricia
