Mary
"We Miss You"
"It broke our hearts
to lose you
but you didn't go alone.
Part of us went with
you
the day God took you home.
If tears could build
a stairway
and heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk a path to heaven
to be with you again."
Mary's Words ...
As time goes by,
I want you to smile when
you think of me.
We need not cry too long.
Remember me with joy and
laughter.
If you can do that,
I will always be close at
hand.
Do not stand at my grave and
weep
I am not there, I do not
sleep
I am a thousand winds that
blow
I am diamond glints on snow
I am the sunlight in ripened
grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in
the morning hush
I am the swift upligting
rush
Of quiet birds in circled
flight
I am the soft stars that
shine at night
Do not stand at my grave
and cry
I am not there, I did not
die.
If Tears Could Build a Stairway
If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to
heaven
And be with you again
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew
it
And only God knows why
Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know
But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy
times
Life still has much in store
Since you'll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our
hearts
Is where you'll always stay.
