| ti t * ^Relietiiong
The dark clouds only last awhile; so be patient and gently smile. Change can come so swiftly now, no need fo r sad and furrowed brow. Frustrations are hard to understand but providence reigns up above. So smile and offer up your love to one who knows when Crosses come, the best prayer is, "Thy Will Be Done. "

Farewell
Farewell, my dear ones, don't weep For 1 am at peace now, just asleep. Farewell, my children, I'm not alone The Mighty "Maker" has led me safely home. Just think back over the many years, How sometimes we seemed so strong, holding back tears But God somehow always made a way And I thank Him every nightfo r another day. Be strong my loved ones, always love one another Be a strong sister, be a kind brother Be strong my loved ones, strong in heart The blood ties, no one can ever part. And i f somewhere 1 made a mistake As you live on, many will you make. Farewell everyone, I've been called away. Walk with God, don'tforget to trust Him everyday.
