Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee,
blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the
hour of our death.
Amen.
Guardian Angel from
heaven so bright,
watching beside me
to lead me aright,
fold thy wings round me,
and guard me with love,
softly sing songs to me
of heaven above.
Amen.
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
may God hold you in the
hollow of His hand.
Beautiful things in this life
are manifold tis true,
we count the stars by thousands,
the birds and flowers, too;
The sunsets and dawnings,
rare beauties far and near,
but all the wide world over,
there’s just one “Mother Dear.”
God grant me the serenity to accept the
things I cannot change, the courage to
change the things I can, and the wisdom
to know the difference.
When those we love go
away, they never really
leave us; they are with us
now, wherever we are.
Those whom we have
cherished,live on forever,
for love wraps itself
around the heart.
God grant that I may live to fish
For another shining day.
But when my final cast is made
I then most humbly pray:
When nestled in Your landing net,
As I lay peacefully asleep,
You’ll smile at me and judge
That I’m “good enough to keep.”
God grant that I may live to fish
O Blessed St. Joseph, faithful
guardian and protector of virgins,
to whom God entrusted Jesus
and Mary, I implore you by the
love which did bear them,
to preserve me from every
defilement of soul and body,
that I may always serve them in
holiness and purity of love.
Amen
We hold you close within our hearts,
And there you shall remain.
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.
So rest in peace dear loved one,
And thanks for all you’ve done.
We pray that God has given you
The crown you’ve truly won.
Just a prayer from
the family
who loved you,
Just a memory
fond and true,
In our hearts you
will live forever,
Because we thought
the world of you.
If tears could build a stairwell
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to Heaven
and bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say good-bye…
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why
