Rest In Peace

Rest in Peace The trumpets sound, the angels sing A loved one’s returned to the king Tears of joy, laughter, love Greet our loved one now above And down below the rain keeps falling Friends and family all are calling Disbelief and sympathy How could God have let this be But God, He knows our loved ones worth He’s known it from before their birth And when it’s best to call them home And claim them as His very own So celebrate the life they led The dreams they lived, the dreams they fed The love they shared; may it increase And may their souls now rest in peace 19 June 2019 A contest on aging
