In the quiet of the room
Angels whisper in the gloom
Do not worry we are there
We shan’t leave you in despair.
God is here and with you now
He remembers all somehow
Child of God just close your eyes
It is time to say goodbyes.
Do not grieve this is the best
Time to seek that final rest
You are not lost or forlorn
The morrow brings your new morn !
The dreams we dreamt when we were young
The words we spoke, the songs we sung
The search for peace we tried to bring
Into our lives with hymns to sing
Has left us now with voices mute
All wisdom lost there in pursuit.
We cannot breathe we dare not think
This world is trembling on the brink
Oh sad the plight that is our view
Oh God above what shall we do ?
