Oh, this treasuring we gather here to view you one last time...

Ode,

In the casket you rest, I pray you're blessed;

Gone on to the Father;

to a place of complete bliss;

Father, I hope that you're there;

I pray that this wayward forgiven sinner;

Stays in your embraced arms;

This Father I know you want all of us to cause;

Now that I'm saying goodbye to my love;

This is a farewell to my beauty, my love;

And it's my duty to grieve for my love;

Greatly missed, I must insist;

To you my love goodbye;

Ode, in the casket you rest, I pray you're blessed; Gone on to the Father; to a place of complete bliss; Father, I hope that you're there; I pray that this wayward forgiven sinner; Stays in your embraced arms; This Father I know you want all of us to cause; Now that I'm saying goodbye to my love; This is a farewell to my beauty, my love; And it's my duty to grieve for my love; Greatly missed, I must insist; To you my love goodbye; You're now on the Lord's side; To God sweet by and by; To you my love goodbye; You lived a long physical life; A mother, sister, a wonderful wife; Now it's time to spend eternity; To you my love goodbye, but to Jesus Christ and God hello child; On this physical plain To you my love goodbye;
