Prayer Selections
23rd Psalm
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not
want. He maketh me to lie down in
green pastures; he leadeth me beside
still waters. He restoreth my soul;
he leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the val-
ley of the shadow of death, I will
fear no evil; for thou art with me.
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort
me. Thou preparest a table before
me in the presence of mine enemies;
thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall
follow me all the days of my life;
and I will dwell in the house of
the Lord forever.
Afterglow Español
Quislera que mi memoria,
los una y que sea muy feilz.
Quislera dejar una reflexion de las
sonrisas cuando termina el dia.
Quisiera dejar un eco suspirando
suavamente por las sendas de nuestras
vidas, de tiempos
lindos y felices, de momentos
iluminantes
y solares.
quislera secar sus lagrimas con
la calldez de la luz de
nuestros momentos preclosos que
dejo para Uds. cuando sale el sol.
God Saw
God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So he put His arms around you
And whispered "Come to me."
With tearful eyes we watched you As you slowly slipped away
And though we loved you dearly
We couldn't make you stay.
Your golden heart stopped beating Your tired hands put to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best.
Irish Blessing / Serenity
An Irish Blessing
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
the rain fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again, May God
hold you in the palm of His hand.
Amen
Serenity
God, Grant me the Serenity to accept
the things I cannot change: Courage
to change the things I can: and
Wisdom to know the difference
Salmos 23
El Señor es mi pastor, Nada me faltará.
En lugares de verdes pastos me
hace descansar; Junto a aguas de
reposo me conduce. Él restaura mi
alma; Me guía por senderos de
justiciar Por amor de Su nombre.
Aunque pase por el valle de sombra de
muerte, No temeré mal alguno, porque
Tú estás conmigo; Tu vara y Tu
cayado me infunden aliento.
Tú preparas mesa delante de mí en presencia de mis enemigos;
Has ungido micabeza con aceite;
Mi copa está rebosando.
Ciertamente el bien y la
misericordia me seguirán todos los
días de mi vida, Y en la casa del
Señor moraré por largos días.
Alleluia, Alleluia
With the Saints give rest, O Christ,
to the souls of Thy servants, where
there is neither sickness, nor sor-
row, nor sighing, but lifelasting.
Thou only art immortal, who hast
created and fashioned man. For out
of the earth were we mortals made,
and unto the earth shall we return
again, as Thou didst command when
Thou madest man, saying unto the
earth shall thou return. Whether,
also, all we mortals wend our way,
making of our funeral dirge
the song:
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia
God Saw Español
Dios te vio cansado
Y una cura no iba a ser
Así que te rodeó con sus brazos
Y susurró "Ven a mí".
Con ojos llorosos te miramos
Mientras te escabulles lentamente
Y aunque te amamos mucho
No pudimos hacer que te quedaras.
Tu corazón dorado dejó de latir
Tus manos cansadas descansan
Dios rompió nuestros corazones para probarnos
Solo toma lo mejor.
Loved Her
Father we entrust our sister
to your mercy.
You loved her greatly in this
life: now that she is freed from
all its cares, giver her happiness
and peace forever.
Welcome her now into paradise
where there will be no more
sorrow, no more weeping or pain,
but only peace and joy with Jesus
your Son, and the Holy Spirit
forever and ever.
Afterglow
I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one,
I’d like to leave an afterglow
of smiles when my life is done.
I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the
ways,
Of happy times and laughing
times and bright and sunny
days.
I’d like the tears of those who
grieve, to dry before the sun,
Replaced by happy moments
shared, when my life is done.
Do Not Stand
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond’s gift of snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am the autumn’s gentle rain
When you awaken in the morning’s
hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine
at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there
I did not die.
God Saw Português
Deus viu você ficar cansado
E não havia cura Então
ele colocou Seus braços
em volta de você E sussurrou
"Venha para mim."
Com olhos marejados nós observamos você
Enquanto você lentamente se afastava E embora
nós te amássemos ternamente Nós não
poderíamos fazer você ficar.
Seu coração de ouro parou de bater Suas mãos
cansadas colocadas para descansar Deus quebrou nossos corações para provar para nós
que Ele só leva o melhor.
Loved Him
Father we entrust our brother
to your mercy.
You loved him greatly in this
life: now that he is freed from
all its cares, give him happiness
and peace forever.
Welcome him now into paradise where there will be no more sorrow,
no more weeping or pain, but only
peace and joy with Jesus your son,
and the Holy Spirit
forever and ever.
Remember Me
Remember me in quiet days, while
raindrops whisper on your pane.
Remember in your memories, have no grief,
let the joy we knew remain.
Remember me if once you wake, to
catch a glimpse of red sunrise.
Remember me when your thoughts do turn to me,
know that I would not have you cry,
but live for me, and laugh for me.
When you are happy so am I.
Remember an old joke we shared.
Remember me when spring walks by.
Think once of me when you are glad
And while you live, I shall not die!
When I Must Leave
When I must leave you for a little
while - - please do not grieve and
shed wild tears and hug you sorrow
to you through the years, But start
out bravely with a gallant smile:
And for my sake and in my name live
on and do all things the same, Feed
not your loneliness on empty days,
But fill each waking hour in useful
ways, Reach out your hand in comfort
and in cheer and I in turn will
comfort you and hold you near;
And never, never be afraid to die,
For I am waiting for you in the sky.
