We’ve shared our lives these many years.
You’ve held my hand; you’ve held my heart.
So many blessings, so few tears
Yet for a moment, we must part.
The memories you’ve given me
Are times I’ve shared with my best friend
I’ll hold them, love, right here they’ll be
Until we share our lives again.

Farewell to Thee! But not farewell
To all my fondest thoughts of Thee;
Within my heart they still shall dwell
And they shall cheer and comfort me.

Life seems more sweet that Thou didst live
And men more true Thou wert one;
Nothing is lost that Thou didst give,
Nothing destroyed that Thou hast done.
