Dying prayer

Lord, I commend my spirit unto Thee
Please watch over my dear children
Help them find a home and family
Let Thy Spirit be always with them.

Please ease their tears and their
cries in the night
When they are missing me
longing for light

lift their souls on the wind up high
let them see all the love in Thine eye
I won't be with them in eternity
but help them to still see

That Thy love is in the raindrops
that quench the thirsty ground
and Thy love is in the sunlight
that warms the world around

and Thy love is in the very air
all living creatures breathe
And Thy love is there for all of us
who reach and believe...

So Lord, I commend my spirit unto Thee
and ask Thy mercy for my family
Let their souls be in Thy hands
help them learn and understand

That love does not end when the body dies
Let them find their love in Thine eye
I won't be with them in eternity.
But help them still to see...
