Our Memories
Time brings many changes
Joys, sorrows, smiles and tears
But memories grow sweeter
with the passage of the years;
Those whom we have loved and lost
Draw nearer and seem to press round
about us in our moments of unhappiness
We miss the loving hand-clasp,
And the voice we knew so well;
We miss the breathing Presence more
than we can tell.
We miss the dear companionship a
little more each day;
But GOD gave us our memories
That none can take away.
