I hold your name close to my heart I shelter your memory in my mind I do believe in life everlasting And love without end amen As long as I live, and life lives within me Part of you will be with me now and forever You are as close as my next breath And you move me with love and grace Everywhere I look I see your face There is evidence of you everywhere So many things touched by your presence And your gentle loving spirit I wish I could put my hand in yours And feel the warmth of your embrace And saddened as I am right now I rejoice in the hope that one day I will be with you again To spend eternity with the one we love
