1. 23rd Psalm
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh
me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the 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 valley 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 annointest my head with oil, my cup runneth
over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of
my life: and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

2. Ecclesiastes 3:18
There is a season for everything, A time for every
occupation under heaven. A time for giving birth, A time for dying;
A time for planting, A time for uprooting what has been planted.
A time for killing, A time for healing; A time for knocking down,
A time for building. A time for tears, A time for laughter; A time
for mourning, A time for dancing. A time for throwing stones away,
A time for gathering them up; A time for embracing, A time to refrain
from embracing. A time for searching, A time for losing; A time
for keeping, A time for throwing away. A time for tearing, A time
for sewing; A time for keeping silent, A time for speaking. A time
for loving, A time for hating; A time for war, A time for peace.

3. Prayer of Saint Francis of
Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; Where
there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where
there is darkness, light; And where there is sadness, joy. O Divine
Master, Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand; To be loved, as to love; For
it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are
pardoned; And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

4. When I Must Leave You
When I must leave you
for a little while
Please do not grieve
and shed wild tears
And hug your 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! Top
5. When I'm Gone
When I come to the end of my journey
And I travel my last weary mile,
Just forget if you can,
that I ever frowned
And remember only the smile.
Forget unkind words I have spoken;
Remember some good I have done,
Forget that I ever had heartache
And remember I’ve had loads of fun.
Forget that I’ve stumbled and blundered
And sometimes fell by the way.
Remember I have fought some hard battles
And won, ere the close of the day,
Then forget to grieve for my going,
I would not have you sad for a day
But in summer just gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay,
And come in the evening
When the sun paints the sky in the west
Stand for a few moments beside me
And remember only my best. Top
6. Serenity Prayer
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. Top
7. Little Angels
When God calls little children
to dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometime question
the wisdom of His love.
For no heartache compares
with the death of one small child
Who does so much
to make our world
seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling
the aged to His fold,
So He picks a rosebud
before it can grow old.
God knows how much
we need them,
and so He takes but few,
To make the land of heaven
more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult
still somehow we must try
The saddest word mankind knows
will always be “Goodbye”.
So when a little child departs,
we who are left behind,
Must realize God loves children,
Angels are hard to find. Top
8. Footprints
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking
along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed scenes from
his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the
sand; one belonging to him, and the other to the LORD. When the
last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the
footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path
of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed
that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him and he questioned the LORD about it. ”LORD,
you said that once I decided to follow you, you’d walk with me all
the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times
in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don’t understand
why when I needed you most you would leave me.” The LORD replied,
”My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave
you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only
one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.” Top
9. The Lords Prayer
Our Father which art in Heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth
As it is in Heaven.
Give us this day
Our daily bread
And forgive us our debts
As we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom,
And the power and the glory, Forever.
Amen. Top
10. Safely Home
I am in Heaven, dear ones;
Oh, so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over,
every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
safely home in heaven at last.
Did you wonder why I so calmly
trod the valley of the shade?
Oh! But Jesus’ love illumined
every dark and fearful glade.
And he came himself to meet me
in that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus’ arm to lean on,
could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely,
for I love you dearly still;
Try to look beyond earth’s shadows,
pray to trust our father’s will.
There is work still waiting for you,
so you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remaineth you
shall rest in Jesus’ land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come! Top
11. Hail Mary
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.

12. Afterglow
I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles when 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.
Of happy memories that I leave when life is done. Top

I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again,and receive
you unto myself; That where I am,there ye may be also. Top
15. Irish Blessing
May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always

20. Love Poem (1 Corinthians 13:4-7)
Love is patient,
love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking,
It is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres. Top

24. I’m Free
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free.
I’m following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard Him call.
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day.
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
I found that peace at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void
then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss.
Ah yes, these things I will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life’s been full, I savored much.
Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief.
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me.
God wanted me now, He set me free. Top
25. Autumn Rain
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 glints upon the snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn’s 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 star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die. Top
26. Policeman’s Prayer
Oh Lord, while I’m on my beat
May I know that you’re with me,
And protect me as I go to guard
Other’s lives and property.
Help me ignore those who scorn
And show me no respect,
But be mindful of all citizens
I’ve sworn that I’ll protect.
Be with my fellow officers
And guard their safety too.
May I always put my duty first
In the work that I must do.
May I not disgrace the uniform
But bring pride to the badge I wear.
That I’d be a good policeman, Lord
Would be my only prayer.
Amen Top
27. A Firefighter’s Prayer
When I am called to duty, God,
whenever flames may rage;
give me strength to save some life,
whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child
before it is too late;
or save an older person
from the horror of that fate.
I want to fill my calling
and give the best in me:
to guard my every neighbor
and protect his property.
And if, according to my fate,
I am to lose my life; please bless
with your protecting hand
my children and my wife. Top
28. A Child’s Prayer
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me,
and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such
as these.” Top
