A tribute to our most precious Pearl (Free verse) by amanda_dcosta
We grew up in a home tâwas yours
Filled with your love and warm embrace,
You taught us how to live our lives
In Jesusâ name and in His grace.
Your word was firm, you stood your place
For truth and love and care,
You gave to all who came to you
The impossible youâd dare!
With love you taught us right from wrong
With love you sacrificed
With love you bore your aches and pains
And not one bit youâd sigh.
Yet, still your spirit wouldnât rest
Until you did your best.
And Jesus from His throne above
Was always there to bless.
With pride we raise this tribute
To your name most precious Pearl
Weâre proud to be a part of you
To carry out your work.
We pledge to go today in love
As Jesus you did follow
And claim His many promises
Today and not tomorrow.
May God the Father, Son and Spirit
Dwell within your soul
As you did be to each your way
Grandmother, mum and spouse.
And may the divine Spirit
Grant you eternal rest
As you leave your earthly home
For the place you deserve best.
We know youâll wait for us to come
And share your home as always.
And, now we know the best way there
Is Jesus whom you did follow.
With pride we send you on your way
To where you now belong.
To Paradise â the Promised Land;
To our Eternal Home.
Eternal rest give unto her, O lord,
And let perpetual light shine upon her.
May her soul rest in peace, Amen.
