Spread your wings and fly my angel

Your life has touched us all.

Your wings so very delicate,

But your spirit conquers all.

You gave us so much joy on earth

But God now reclaims his prize.

Spread your wings and fly my angel

Let your wings take to the skies.

We will miss you dearly, but your

Transition is complete.

Your wings are now an angel’s

Back home you must retreat.

You’re here with me

Although I cannot see you

I know that this is true

I feel your arms surrounding me

You watch over all I do.

Guiding me and giving me

A light to show the way

You influence the way I am

and how I act throughout the day.

You’re here with me, I know you are

I can sense your love and charm

Drifting in the cool night breeze

and keeping me from harm.

I hope that I might make you proud

As I give support to others

Those who feel despair, they are

My sisters and my brothers.

So here I stand, with eyes ahead

And I’ll try hard you’ll see

To make my life a worthwhile time

Because I know you’re here with me.

Happiness Waiting for You

There is light at the end of the tunnel.

There is calm at the end of the storm…

There is rest at the end of the journey,

and a hearth that is welcome and warm.

There’s a star on the top of the mountain

you can touch when the last crag is scaled.

There’s a certain reward for the faithful

at the point where they think they have failed.

There’s a spring at the end of the winter

and behind the black cloud it is blue…

There’s a song at the heart of your sorrow,

and happiness waiting for you.

Do you make them laugh in Heaven,

does your smile bring them good cheer?

Do you make the sun shine brighter,

like you did when you were here?

The very mention of your name,

the memories of your smile,

The little things you said and did,

are with us all the while.

You meant so very much to us,

there’s nothing left to say,

Except that without you here

there is no perfect day.

For no-one knows the heartache,

that lies behind our smiles,

No-one knows how many times

we have broken down & cried.

We want to tell you something

so there won’t be any doubt,

You’re so wonderful to think of,

but so hard to be without.

We hold you close within our hearts,

and there you shall remain.

To walk with us throughout our lives,

until we meet again.

Dad

Dad…so many images come to mind

whenever I speak your name;

It seems without you in my life

things have never been the same.

What happened to those lazy days

when I was just a child;

When my life was consumed in you

in your love, and in your smile.

What happened to all those times

when I always looked to you;

No matter what happened in my life

you could make my gray skies blue.

Dad, some days I hear your voice

and turn to see your face;

Yet in my turning…it seems

the sound has been erased.

Dad, who will I turn to for answers

when life does not make sense;

Who will be there to hold me close

when the pieces just don’t fit.

Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time

and once more hear your voice;

I’d tell you that out of all the dads

you would still be my choice.

Please always know I love you

and no one can take your place;

Years may come and go

but your memory will never be erased.

Today, Jesus, as You are listening

in your home above;

Would you go and find my dad

and give him all my love
