Wrote this for a friend a few years ago. Her Mom died and she wanted to have a piece to put in the programs for the funeral.
Weep Not For Me, My Children
Weep not for me, my children for I've found eternal rest; With Christ our Lord and king, who loved your 'Sweetie' best. I know that I'll miss your humor, love and smiles; you're all so precious to me & made my life full and worthwhile.
Oh how I've treasured this life
God gave to me~! a journey both rich & blessed; With family and friends that I cherished, for you were my greatest success! Weep not for me, my children
as I'm home now with my Lord; No pain or
suffering anymore and my joy has been restored.
I'll see you all one day again on heaven's majestic shores; a celebration that will be, with you whom I adore.
Until that moment arrives, I encourage you all to standfast; Keep the love of God in your hearts--endure to the last. Hold fast to the faith I've taught you by my life's daily example; Hold fast to the God I embraced for His strength
is more than ample. Weep not for me, my children as this is not goodbye; Remember I'll live in your hearts
forever. 'Sweetie' will NEVER DIE
