BOOK, This remembrance book, we now . in tender love present, The names of those written within, and, of those yet to be, It was a special wish, that we all might consent, To have in writing, the names of loved ones, so dear to you and to me. I pray Thee, let us not be too sad or cast down, For GOD has them all safe in his keeping, He has gathered them, as rare jewels for his crown, And safe in his loving arms, they are now sleeping. They have gone to a land void of sin, pain and sorrow, To a home in that fair shining land above, With no dread thought of sleepless night or of a painful tomorrow, God had now made them all whole, in tender mercy and love. Thank you dear GOD for your gift of remembrance, Also for your guidance, your love and your care, And if we learn to grow in love and in grace, We all hope, one day, your bright mansion to share. Composed by: Grace Lawrance. Josie Love read an article entitled, "Our Trip to Ireland."
