I see the countless Christmas trees
Around the world below.
With tiny lights like heavens stars
reflecting on the snow,

the sight is so spectacular
please wipe away your tears
for i am sharing Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year

I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear
but the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir here.

I have no words to tell your
the joy their voices bring
Its far beyond description
to hear the angels sing

I know how much you miss me
i see the pain within your heart
but i am not so far away
We really aren't apart

So be happy for me loved ones
you know i hold you dear
and be glad I'm spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year

After all `love` is the gift
more precious than pure gold
It was always more important
in the stories Jesus told

Please love and keep each other
as my Father said to do
For i can't count the blessings
or the love he has for you

So have a gentle Christmas
and wipe away those tears
for i am spending Christmas
with the Lord this year.

LOVE YOU AND MISSING YOU ALWAYS

*★ܓ Why do we feel the way we do
*★ܓ Missing our angels like the way we do
*★ܓ Some days we hurt so much inside
*★ܓ All we want is our angels by our side

*★ܓ We know our angels are having fun
*★ܓ looking down laughing at us
*★ܓ thinking we should really know
*★ܓ how much they still love us so

*★ܓ But all we want is to hold there hand
*★ܓ And tell them we want them
*★ܓ On this earthly ground
*★ܓ How we know this can never be
*★ܓ As god took our angels
*★ܓ To his heavenly land

*★ܓ Our pain and hurt is so deep
*★ܓ How will our heart ever heal
*★ܓ How we hope you can hear us
*★ܓ each day and night
*★ܓ wishing you our beautiful angels

*★ܓ★* Goodnight *★ *★ܓ

Angel whispers

☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆

Last night I had a dream
When an angel I did see,
She took my hand in hers
And whispered "follow me".

★
I flew with her to Heaven
On wings of purest white,
We danced amidst the stars
That sparkled in the night.
★
On the pathway to the moon,
I looked down upon the earth
And suddenly remembered,
The moment of my birth.
★
The angel looked at me,
Her lips curved in a smile,
Knowing I'd recalled,
She'd walked with me each mile.
★
She was my special angel;
God's creation just for me,
To guide me in my life,
And through eternity
★
I didn't want to leave her,
As we stood in heavenly bliss,
But she whispered her goodbye
And departed with a kiss.
★
Awaking in the morning,
Warm sunshine stroked my face
Had I just dreamt of my angel,
Or was it real - that heavenly place?
★
I felt such peace within me,
It seemed so very clear,
Then I swear I heard her whisper,
"You know I'm always here'.

FOR MONDAY

Your presence I miss,
Your memory I treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.

FOR TUESDAY

I sit and wonder every day,
Why the Lord chose to call you away,
I think He saw you needed rest,
He only takes the very best.

FOR WEDNESDAY

Everyday in some small way,
Memories of you come our way,
Though absent, you are always near,
Still missed, loved, always dear.

FOR THURSDAY

Resting where no shadows fall,
In peaceful sleep he awaits us all;
God will link the broken chain,
When one by one we meet again.

Tributes For This Weekend

FOR FRIDAY 7th August

~Pennies Come From Heaven~


Found a penny today
Laying on the ground
But its not just a penny
This little coin I found

Pennies come from heaven
That's what my Mum told me
She said angels toss them down
Oh, how I loved this story

She said when an Angel misses you
They toss a penny down
Sometimes just to cheer you up
To make a smile out of a frown

So, don't pass by that penny
When you're feeling blue
It may be a penny from Heaven
That your loved ones have tossed to you

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR SATURDAY

~God's Garden~

God looked around his garden
And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this earth,
And saw your tired face.

He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again

He saw that the road was getting rough,
And the hills are hard to climb.
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered "Peace be thine."

It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥


FOR SUNDAY

~When Tomorrow Starts Without Me~

When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;

I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;

But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,

And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.

I had so much to live for;
So much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.

If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realised
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place of me.

And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.

So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right there, in your heart.

Tributes For This Weekend

My Friend

I'm sending you this little note
It comes with love to say
I've asked your guardian angel
To watch over you each day

For whenever your feeling down
Your angels sure to know
And you'll soon receive guidance
And will know which way to go

Don't let your troubles worry you
Dear friend you will be fine
For your loved and protected
By a presence that's divine.

FOR FRIDAY

We'll Never Say Goodbye

I cannot see you with my eyes
Or hear you with my ears.
But thoughts of you are with me still
And often dry my tears.

You whisper in the rustling leaves
That linger in the fall;
And in the gentle evening breeze,
I’m sure I hear you call.

A part of you remains with me
That none can take away.
It gives me strength to carry on
At dawning of new day.

I think of happy times we shared
And then I softly sigh.
But this I know -- we’ll meet again
And never say goodbye

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR SATURDAY

Angel Mum’s

We have shared our tears and our sorrow,
We have given encouragement to each other,
Given hope for a brighter tomorrow,
We share the title of grieving Mother.

Some of us lost older Daughters or Sons,
Who we watched grow over the years,
Some have lost their babies before their lives begun,
But no matter the age we cry the same tears.

We understand each other’s pain,
The bond we share is very strong,
With each other there is no need to explain,
The path we walk is hard and long.

Our children brought us together,
They didn't want us on this journey alone,
They knew we needed each other,
To survive the pain of them being gone.

So take my hand my friend,
We may stumble and fall along the way,
But we'll get up and try again,
Because together we can make it day by day.

We can give each other hope,
We'll create a place where we belong,
Together we will find ways to cope,
Because we are Angel Mums and together we are strong!

FOR SUNDAY

So Little Time

We had so little time to share,
Too soon, I had to leave.
I know how much you love me,
I know how much you grieve.

I know how sharp your pain is,
I feel the aching in your hearts.
My life so quickly ended
Before it barely had a start.

I remember how you held me,
And kissed my face and hands,
You cuddled me so gently;
But, God had other plans.

I was your perfect angel,
From God you knew I came,
Suddenly he called me home again,
And now God holds my hand.

I know you’ll always miss me,
I understand your pain is hard to bear.
Just remember that I’m in heaven
And we’ll see each other there.

So smile when you think of me
and wipe away all of your tears
I’m cuddled now in heaven
By our family members here.

I’m waiting here in heaven,
And on the day we meet again.
I’ll be the first to smile and greet you,
When God calls you home to him.

♥*•.♥ Simply The Best ♥*•.♥

The sun still shines
The rain still falls
Not long ago i had it all
These words i write
Straight from my heart
When you left it broke my heart
Now i search within my soul
To find the pieces
To make my heart whole
Ill never find the last piece
You took it when you left
For i truly do believe
That you needed the rest
So now youve got your Angel wings
You fly high with the rest
Because i know deep in my heart
To me ♥*•.♥ SIMPLY THE BEST ♥*•.♥

I am the stars in the sky and the sun up high ♥

I am the snow on the ground, I am all around ♥

I am the moon at night, please know I'm alright ♥

I am the blossom on a tree, you'll never forget me ♥

♥ I am the rain on your face, a rainbow's embrace
I am the leaves on the ground, I'll always be around ♥

Look all around you, you'll feel me I'm sure ♥

My memories live on, we'll never be apart ♥

♥ I am all around you, in all that you see, hear and do
Just reach right out now, I am always here with you ♥
