A GOOD NIGHT KISS FOR ME

"Lord, You knew best when you called her home
And You know the hurt since she is gone.
But I thank You, Lord, evermore for these
Her earthly life and her memories.

I remember her courage, her strength I recall
Many times she stumbled, but she did not fall.
The sparkle in her eyes revealed her hope
With a smile on her lips each time she spoke.

Lord, whatever Your will, You always know best
And this vapor called life is only a test.
So if it is Your will, I pray to Thee
Let an angel in Heaven kiss her good night for me."

"First, you count the days
then the weeks.
Eventually the months
then the years,
Until you, yourself close your eyes for that eternal sleep
"Tis then the counting stops."
