Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.
The voice is mute and stilled the heart
That loved us well and true,
Ah, bitter was the trial to part
From one so good as you.
You are not forgotten loved one
Nor will you ever be
As long as life and memory last
We will remember thee.
We miss you now, our hearts are sore,
As time goes by we miss you more,
Your loving smile, your gentle face,
No one can fill your vacant place.
The Lord is my shepherd: I
shall not want. He maketh me to
lie down in green pastures: he
leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth
me in the paths of righteousness
for his name's sake. Yea, though
I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no
evil: for thou art with me; thy rod
and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over. Surely
goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life: and I
shall dwell in the house of the
Lord forever.
