Our Dad was our Hero

He was the most courageous and resourceful man.

We never questioned if he loved or cared for us because he made it so obvious,

I am in Heaven, dear ones

Oh, so happy and so bright.

There is perfect joy and beauty

In this everlasting light.

 

All the pain and grief is over-

Every restless tossing passed.

I am now at peace forever,

Safely home in Heaven at last.

 

Did you wonder I so calmly

Trod the valley of the shade ?

I needed the quiet so HE drew me aside

Into the shadows where we could confide,

Away from the bustle where all the day long

I hurried and worried when active and strong,

I  needed the quiet tho at first I rebelled,

But gently, so gently  my cross HE upheld,

And whispered so sweetly of spiritual things,

Tho weakened...

A life well lived is a precious gift

Of hope and strength and grace,

From someone who has made our world

A brighter, better place

It's filled with moments, sweet and sad

With smiles and sometimes tears,

With friendships formed and good times shared And laughter through the years.

A life will lived is a legacy

Of joy and pride...

If you could see me now, you wouldn't shed a tear,

Though you may not understand why I'm no longer here,

Remember my spirit, that's the real me.

I'm still very much alive, oh, if you could only see!

I've behold our Father's face. I've touched my Savior's hand.

The angels all rejoiced as I entered the Promised Land.

" Good-night, sleep well !" we say to those we love,

And watch dear faces glimmer on the stair,

And hear faint footfalls in the rooms above

            Sound on the quiet air,

Yet feel no fear, though lonely they must go

The road of slumber's strange oblivion:

           Dark always...

There 's an open gate at the end of the road through which each must go alone;

And there is a light we cannot see; Our Father claims his own.

Beyond the gate our loved one finds happiness and rest;

And there is comfort in the thought that a Loving GOD knows best.

THE WATCHER

She always leaned to watch for us,

Anxious if we were late,

In winter by the window,

In summer by the gate;

And though we mocked her tenderly,

Who had such foolish care,

The long way home would seem so safe

Because she waited there.

Her thoughts were all so full of us,

She never would forget !
