The happy hours we once enjoyed – Verse 012

The happy hours we once enjoyed,
How sweet their memory still,
But death has left a vacant place,
This world can never fill.
 
Each time we look at your picture,
You seem to smile and say,
Don’t be sad, but courage take,
And love each other for my sake.
 
We think of you in silence,
And often speak your name,
All we have are memories,
And your photo in a frame.
 
Lonely is the home without you,
Life to us is not the same,
All the world would be like Heaven,
If we could have you back again.
 
May the God of Love and Mercy,
Care for our loved one who is gone,
And bless with consolation,
Those left to carry on.
