In Our Hearts

We thought of you with love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.

We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.

Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.

Golden Memories

They say memories are golden
Well, maybe that is true
I never wanted memories
I only wanted you
A million times I cried
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died
In life I loved you dearly
in death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place
no one else could fill
If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane
I'd walk the path to Heaven
and bring you back again
Our family chain is broken
and nothing seems the same
But as God calls us back one by one
the chain will link again
