a funeral song

Verse 1:

As we gather here today
To say our last goodbyes
We mourn the loss of one so dear
Friend, family, loved one, wise

Chorus:
Oh, the tears we shed, the memories we hold
As we lay you down to rest
In God's arms you are now enfold
Our hearts are heavy, we confess

Verse 2:
We'll remember your laughter,
Your kindness and your grace
The light you brought to all our lives
In this final resting place

Chorus:
Oh, the tears we shed, the memories we hold
As we lay you down to rest
In God's arms you are now enfold
Our hearts are heavy, we confess

Bridge:
Though we may feel the pain of loss
We know you're in a better place
With peace and love and no more strife
Rest now, dear one, in God's embrace

Chorus:
Oh, the tears we shed, the memories we hold
As we lay you down to rest
In God's arms you are now enfold
Our hearts are heavy, we confess

Outro:
Farewell, dear friend, until we meet again
In heaven's bright and shining light
Your memory will forever remain
In our hearts, shining ever bright.
