Once in every lifetime we are truely blessed.
God blessed with a precious Daughter.
A treasured Angel sent from God.
Altho you could stay but a short time,
You touched our lives with so much joy.
Our Sweet Elizabeth
how you brightened our world,
You have left your footprints,
all over our hearts.
You are my forever blooming Rose
You are my forever blooming rose, deep within my heart and my soul.
You are the sun ray that beats down on me, and brings me your warmth.
You are the stars that twinkle above, so that I will no longer be in darkness.
You are my eternal love, my forever blooming rose.
You are the rivers that shares your water, when I thirst for you.
You are my courage, when I feel all alone.
You are the trees that shades me and protects me.
You are my eternal love my forever blooming rose.
You are the dove that brings me peace.
You are the one who brings me hope.
You are the flower that blooms deep within me.
For you are my eternal love, my forever blooming rose.
To my Dearest friends and family,
some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know,
that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven.
Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness;
Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you every
morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you
when my life on earth was through.
God picked me up and hugged me and
He said, "I welcome you".
"It's good to have you back again,
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your friends and family,
They'll be here later on.
I need you here badly,
you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do,
to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things,
that he wished for me to do, and
foremost on the list,
was to watch and care for you.
And I will be beside you
every day and week and year
and when you're sad
I'm standing there to wipe away the tear.
And when you lie in bed at night
the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closest to you..
in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth,
and all those loving years,
because you are only human,
they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry,
it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers,
unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you
all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you,
you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain,
though my life on earth is o'er,
I'm closer to you now than
I ever was before.
And to my very many friends
trust God knows what is best,
I'm still not far away from you
I'm just beyond the crest.
There are many rocky roads
ahead of you and
many hills to climb;
But together we can do it by
taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too;
That as give unto the world,
the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody
who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God
at night...
"My day was not in vain".
And now I am contented....
that my life was worthwhile.
Know as I passed along the way
I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody
who is sad and feeling low,
Just lend a hand to pick him up,
as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street
and you've got me on your mind,
I'm walking in you footsteps
only half a step behind.
And when you feel the gentle breeze
or the wind upon your face,
that's me giving you a great big hug
or just a soft embrace.
And when it's time for you to go
....from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going..
..you're coming here to me.
And I will always love you
from that land way up above.
Will be in touch again soon.
P.S. God sends His Love
In Loving Memory Of
Elizabeth
