I Am With You Always
To Those I Love and to
Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me, let me go I
have so many things to see and do. You mustnt tie
yourself to me with tears. I gave you my love, you
can only guess, how much you gave me in
happiness. I thank you for the love you each have
shown, but now its time I traveled on alone. So
grieve awhile for me, if grieve you must. Then let
your grief be comforted by trust. Its only for a
while that we mmst part, so bless the memories
within your heart. I wont be far away, for life goes
on, so if you need me, call and I will come. Though
you cant see or touch me. Ill be near. And if you
listen with your heart, youll hear all of my love
around you soft and clear. And then when you
come this way alone. Ill greet you with a smile and
Welcome Home

GOD KNOWS
FOR EVERY PAIN THAT WE MUST BEAR,
FOR EVERY BURDEN, EVERY CARE
THERE IS A REASON.
FOR EVERY GRIEF THAT BOWS THE HEAD,
FOR EVERY TEAR DROP THAT WE SHED
THERE IS A REASON.
FOR EVERY HEART, EVERY PLIGHT,
FOR EVERY LONELY PAIN WRACKED NIGHT
THERE IS A REASON.
BUT IF WE TRUST IN GOD AS WE SHOULD
ALL MUST WORK OUT FOR OUR GOOD
AND HE THE ALMIGHTY KNOWS THE REASON.
